Now are talking about environmental paint, but environmental paint really useful? Nowadays, the use of spraying materials in decoration is more and more, but due to the lack of safety knowledge of some decoration personnel, resulting in a series of fires, explosions and poisoning accidents. Because the number of people who are particularly vulnerable is rising. How do we do that? Here we take a look at how to prevent paint poisoning.
On the morning of June 13, 2011, four people at a construction site in Xinjiang Province suffered from gas poisoning while applying polyurethane waterproof paint in the basement. All of them collapsed in the underground room, unable to move. In our country, because of improper construction of polyurethane coating and poisoning cases often common, the occurrence of the case is also once again sounded the alarm for the development of polyurethane coating industry.
Paint coating, especially as a solvent and diluent of various liquid materials, will volatilization, toxic gas, often inhaled this gas, will destroy the physiological function of the human body, and cause some lesions. Some gas and human skin contact, may produce dermatitis, eczema and dry skin and other diseases. Generally, the maximum allowable concentration of benzene in the ambient air of residential areas is 0. 8mg/m3, the maximum allowable concentration in the workplace in industrial enterprises is 5mg/m3, otherwise poisoning will occur.
(1) Strengthen labor protection education, so that operators (including relevant personnel) can master the knowledge of protection.
(2) The work site should have good ventilation conditions. If the ventilation conditions are not good, measures must be taken before painting.
(3) Necessary protective equipment should be equipped, such as masks, respirators, safety goggles or full-face masks. The workplace should have eye washing devices, or rubber gloves (cloth gloves), work clothes, sleeves, foot covers, etc.
(4) hands or skin stained with paint, as far as possible not harmful solvents to wash, kerosene or diesel washing, or with soap, washing powder and wood chips scrub, and then wash with warm water.
(5) Regular physical examination shall be carried out for workers engaged in painting work for a long time, and timely treatment shall be conducted if symptoms are found.
(6) To improve the operating environment, such as red lead pigment brush as far as possible, less spraying, in order to reduce the chance of droplets and gas inhalation into the human body, operation, stand in the windward direction, cover tightly sealed paint container, to avoid gas volatilization.
(7) Wash your hands and face before eating, and take a shower if you use harmful paint for a long time.
(8) Hands or exposed skin can be applied in advance of protective paste. The paste can be prepared by itself, and its mix is: talc 22.1, starch 4.1, vegetable or mineral oil 9.4, gelatin 1.9, glycerin 1.4, boric acid 1.9, water 59.2. Before applying, wash your hands, and then rub the paste into a completely dry thin layer with your hands. Wash off with water and soap when you are done.
At present, the Chinese society is progressing with the rapid development of the economy, the paint industry also has a promising prospect, in such a good environment, I believe that the paint construction personnel this group will also get good improvement with the development of the industry, hope that the health and interests of the paint workers can be more guaranteed.
