Personal Protective Technology

Activities: NIOSH Research Projects

The activities of the PPT Program are summarized in the form of quad charts. The quad charts provide a quick visual snapshot of the project by providing the 1) objective of the project, 2) key milestones for the project, 3) lists of partners and stakeholders, 4) outputs and outcomes. The quad charts for the PPT Program are separated into three categories to reflect the goals of the Cross-Sector. The PPT Program project distributions for 2009 and 2008 can be viewed by clicking on the year.

Project distributions for 2006 and 2007 are located at Prior Year Research Projects.

The PPT Program laboratory facilities are described here: PDF Only - PPT Program Laboratory Facilities [current as of November 2007] (4.5 MB; 38 pages)

This site contains documents in PDF format. You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to access the file. If you do not have the Acrobat Reader, you may download a free copy from the Adobe Web site.
