| Résumé : |
Early inexperience with handling acrylates and poor work habits resulted in cases of occupational dermatitis. These incidents and early toxicity testing reports generated concerns and some misconceptions about the safety of UV/EB curing technology.Subsequent testing has shown that earlier concerns about acrylate toxicity were overstated. UV/EB curing materials have low systemic toxicity, and acrylates as a class can not be assumed to be carcinogenic via dermal exposure. Products with unusually severe irritation characteristics have been eliminated from commercial use, and new, less irritating materials are available for formulating UV/EB curing systems.Good industrial hygiene practices, knowledge of safe handling procedures and worker training are essential for safe handling of any chemical. When these principles are followed, experience has shown that UV/EB curing technology can be handled safely in industrial applications. |
