The hazmat suit is meant to stop environmental damage, such as fire. I'm pretty sure the suit is supposed to take damage in the lava and wear out pretty quickly, but you do have a point.
The Hazard Suit is an overall sub-par armor, but grants full immunity to shock, fire, acid, radiation and as well lava (and as well drowning and fall damage, with boots/helmet respectively).
On the other hand, the suit will be torn apart quickly if you use it for casual mob-fighting.

Acid?! Is that something planned, or is that a random example? Everything else already is present in vanilla or IC2, but acid? Again, what?!

Possibly. There are a few acids added by other mods via the Liquid API. If they are presented in liquid block form, I would imagine that this armor may apply to them..
I'll test that and see if that's the case. Wouldn't bank on the idea of this as a 'future feature' out of IC2 as of yet...
(Now, for other add-on's, however)...
If we have acid, we would need a good use.
ACID GUN MWUAHAHAHHAHAHA
