What is the Lightweight Nomex Hood Sage balaclava made of
Based on 3 oz (75 g) NOMEX® fabric purchased from the Dupont factory. It is woven from meta-aramid threads. It is characterized by high fire and thermal protective functions, but not at all due to special impregnations, as in other fabrics. The uniqueness of NOMEX lies in its special porous structure. As soon as the external temperature begins to rise, these pores become clogged and do not allow hot air to pass into the clothing. The fabric barrier is 800°F (426°C).

As the manufacturer notes, in case of outbreaks and fire, the HWI Nomex balaclava will protect the head and neck from 2nd and 3rd degree burns. It will not smoke and melt, it is capable of self-extinguishing. If the fabric is exposed to high temperatures for a long time, it will compact, and a charred crust will form on the surface. However, even after that, the material will not cease to protect. Of course, in the event of a fire, this effect will not last forever, it still has time limits.
