radiation suits
Nuclear protective clothing
Radiation suits are protective garments designed to shield the wearer from radioactive contamination or exposure.
They range from lightweight coveralls that block contaminated particles to heavy lead-lined suits for high-exposure environments.
The term appears frequently in science fiction and nuclear disaster contexts: Workers in radiation suits approached the damaged reactor.
Also called hazmat suits when protection extends to other hazardous materials.
