What are the hazards of FRP dust to human body?

Because glass dust is very small, it is particularly easy to inhale from the respiratory tract and affect people's lungs. A large amount of dust can cause macrophage death and pulmonary fibrosis, which is called silicosis.

The flying debris is mainly powdered glass fiber dust, which will cause harm to the skin and cause itching. Therefore, you must wear a mask at work and pay attention to labor protection.

Extended data:

1. Dust prevention is the key to control or reduce the incidence of silicosis. Industrial and mining enterprises should pay attention to comprehensive dust prevention measures such as reforming production technology, wet operation, sealing dust sources, ventilation and dust removal, and equipment maintenance and repair.

2, strengthen personal protection, abide by the dust-proof operation procedures. Regularly monitor the dust concentration in the air of production environment and strengthen publicity and education. Have a physical examination before employment, including X-ray chest film.

3. Patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis and various respiratory diseases should not participate in silica dust operations. Strengthen the regular physical examination of workers exposed to silica dust, including X-ray chest film. The interval of examination depends on the content of exposed silica dust and the concentration of air dust.
