This project covers Phase I of research and development for a low cost disposable passive dosimeter for monitoring personnel exposure to toxic hydrazine compounds. The system will be capable of measuring in the workplace atmosphere at low ppm levels and providing visual alarm warning to the wearer. Phase I consists of the necessary basic research into colorimetric chemical reaction systems to permit selection of the optimum candidate. In addition, filter materials will be tested to determine suitable diffusion barrier materials. A complete badge concept will be defined for further development under Phase II.STATUS: Project Proceded to Phase II
