The most common origins areirritant or allergic responses to a chemical or physical agent.Signs and symptoms that typify the initial onset of

21、dermatitisinclude: erythema (redness); edema (swelling); pruritis (itch-ing); and, vesiculation (pimple-like eruptions). In more severecases, fissures (deep cracks) and ulcers (open sores) maydevelop. The condition is usually reversible when exposure tothe causative agent ceases. More severe cases m

Individuals who havefair complexions appear to be at higher risk for dermatitis.3.2.4 emergency, nany occurrence, such as but not limitedto equipment failure, rupture of containers, or failure of controlequipment that results in an uncontrolled release

Significance and Use4.1 Use of this practice will improve management andcontrol of metal removal fluids. The proper management anduse will reduce dermal

31、and other occupational hazards associ-ated with these fluids.4.1.1 Guide E2148 covers information on how to usedocuments related to health and safety of metalworking andmetal removal fluids, including this document. Documentsreferenced in Guide E2148 are grouped as applicable toproducers, to users,

32、or to all.4.1.2 Practice E2889 augments the information provided inthis practice by providing information on approaches to reduc-ing exposures to different types of metal removal fluid relatedaerosols.5. Routes of Metal Removal Fluid Exposure and Effectsof Overexposure5.1 Routes of exposure to metal

33、 removal fluids include eyecontact, inhalation, ingestion, and dermal contact. Exposuremay be through contact with the fluid or by contact withairborne fluid mists, vapor, splashing, or residual fluid onmachinery, parts, or clothing.5.2 Eye contact may cause mild to severe irritation, depend-ing on

34、the concentration and specific characteristics (forexample, alkalinity) of the product.5.2.1 Prevent eye contact. Ensure that splash guarding isfunctional or wear eye protection appropriate for the level of5Available from ORC Worldwide, Inc., 1800 K Street NW, Suite 810,Washington, DC 20006.E1497 17

See 29 CFR 1910.133.5.3 Inhalation may cause respiratory irritation or other typesof respiratory effects (see 5.3.4).5.3.1 Reduce exposure to mists and vapors. Permissibleexposure levels (OSHA) of the fluid and c

36、omponent ingredi-ents shall not be exceeded. Engineering controls, such asmachine enclosures and exhaust ventilation or substitution withlow-mist products, are preferred methods to control exposure.5.3.2 Test Method D7049 can be used for the determinationof both particulate total matter and extracta

38、 Exposure to Metal WorkingFluids.65.4 Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal disturbances.5.5 Prolonged or repeated dermal contact may cause dry andcracked skin, rash, redness, burning, or itching. Skin abrasionscan intensify the effects. Some metal removal fluids andadditives may sensitize the skin o

39、f affected employees, whichcan result in a response to very low levels of exposure.6. Fluid Product Selection6.1 Proper product selection is fundamentally critical toreducing or eliminating respiratory conditions and occupa-tional dermatitis associated with exposure to metal removalfluids. The metal

40、 removal fluids should perform as intendedwhile providing the safest working conditions. The selection ofa metal removal fluid for each different operation must con-sider the inherent limitations of the product. Water-misciblefluids not properly selected are likely to be used at higherconcentrations

41、 than other products more appropriate to theoperation.6.1.1 Consult “Management of the Metal Removal Environ-ment” and “Metalworking Fluids Evaluation Guide”7forfurther information on selecting the proper fluid for theapplication. In addition, your fluid supplier, chemical manager,or corporate subje

42、ct matter expert should be able to provideinformation on the proper selection of the appropriate fluid andrecommended concentration for use.6.2 Potential health hazards can be reduced by careful fluidselection and substitution. See Guide E1302 and consult“Metalworking Fluids: Safety and Health Best

43、PracticesManual”8for further information.6.3 The metal removal fluid manufacturers safety datasheet (SDS) and toxicological data must be complete and mustprovide all applicable information on metal removal fluids,ingredients, and additives. This data shall be reviewed in orderto evaluate potential h

44、azards and establish appropriate controlprocedures.6.4 The metal removal fluid manufacturer must provide allapplicable health, safety, and toxicological data on additives,including rust inhibitors, product stabilizers, and antimicrobi-als of all types, odorants, and dyes. These data shall bereviewed

45、 for their impact on the metal removal fluid mixture towhich they are added. Additives shall only be used with theagreement of the metalworking fluid manufacturer and theappropriate health and safety personnel in the plant.6.5 As supplied, antimicrobials and other additives fortankside addition may

46、present greater health and safety risksthan the metal removal fluid. Further, additives and antimicro-bials are less likely to be handled automatically, or with specialdelivery equipment, than metal removal fluid concentrate sogreater care and attention are required to reduce risks ofexposure.6.5.1

47、To avoid recognized health and safety hazards, metalremoval fluid formulations shall not contain nitrites or nitro-sating agents, petroleum oils that are not severely refined,chlorinated paraffins that have been identified as carcinogens,and other constituents listed in applicable purchase specifica

48、-tions.6.6 All applicable disposal criteria must be met. If there isan on-site wastewater treatment plant, consult with the operatorat the time of fluid selection.7. Water Quality and Treatment7.1 Water constitutes more than 90 % of the diluted water-miscible metal removal fluid mixture. Water shall

49、 be evaluatedfor hardness, alkalinity, high conductivity, turbidity,corrosivity, biological contaminants, and other factors that maylead to increased use of metal removal fluid concentrate,additives, or antimicrobials, or a combination thereof. Goodwater quality is fundamental to proper metal removal fluid use,will help reduce use of additives and antimicrobials, andlengthen fluid life. Consult your metal removal fluid supplier,chemical manager, and corporate subject matter expert.7.2 Where suitable water is not available, water treatmentshall be designed to produce e
