This paper discusses personal protective principles of emergency rescuers which is based on the requirements of fast, accurate and effective emergency rescue in dangerous chemical accidents. Firstly, this paper analyzes the emergency plan and the preparation that we need make for personal protection of rescuers. Then, this paper uses all kinds of exposure limiting concentration of dangerous chemical to classify the initial quarantine, protective area, hot area, warmer area and cold area on the basis of the planning guide on emergency response of polluted air (American industrial hygiene association). Finally, this paper defines area operations, qualifications requirements of rescuers in area, principles of division, protective objects for different areas, so as to determine the personal protection level of emergency rescuers in various areas, which can provide reference for the personal protection of emergency rescuers in dangerous chemical accidents
