Skin permeation calculator

This page provides a description and a link to a "Skin permeation calculator" modeling tool that can be used for modeling exposure levels or information needed in exposure assessment.

Short description

The skin permeation coefficient (kp) is a measure of the conductance of skin to a particular chemical from a particular vehicle. This calculator by NIOSH estimates the value of kp from an aqueous vehicle using three different models: Frasch, Potts & Guy and Modified Robinson.
