4. Environmental Protection
Protection can be classified into three major components
Thermal protection
Chemical protection
Biological protection
Finer fibers tend to entrap more still air than coarse fibers for the
same bulk
Hoods and efficient seals, gloves and over boot complete the ensemble
Fully integrated active safety that can be stitched directly into the
garments
vests that protect their wearer against the twin threats of bullet and
knives
Bekaerts steel cord (Steel skin) gives the wearer stab protection

9. Conclusion
The developments are never ending process. The general aims of
development in protective textiles are gives improvement in protection
against natural and battle field threats. Also it maintains thermophysiological comfort or survival in extreme conditions.
