32、and Effectsof Overexposure4.1 Routes of exposure to metal removal fluids includeinhalation, ingestion, eye contact, and dermal contact. Thispractice focuses on exposure through dermal contact with thefluid, contact with residual fluid on machinery, parts, orclothing, and in some cases contact with f
33、luid mists, splashes,or aerosols. Refer to Practice E2889 for information about thehealth risks related to inhalation exposure and guidance on howto reduce these risks.4.2 Prolonged or repeated dermal contact can cause dry andcracked skin, rash, redness, burning, or itching.

35、45240, http:/www.acgih.org.E2693 142additives can sensitize the skin of affected employees, whichcan result in a response to very low levels of exposure. Thispractice defines dermatitis as an inflammatory response to theskin. Dermatitis can result from a wide variety of sources andprocesses. The mos
36、t common origins are irritant or allergicresponses to a chemical or physical agent. Signs and symptomsthat typify the initial onset of dermatitis include: erythema(redness); edema (swelling); pruritis (itching); and, vesicula-tion (pimple-like eruptions). In more severe cases, fissures(deep cracks)
37、and ulcers (open sores) can develop. Thecondition is usually reversible when exposure to the causativeagent ceases. More severe cases can require more time andsome medical attention.4.3 Aerosols, mist, and vapors can contact and expose theskin as well as contaminate clothing.5. Significance and Use5
38、.1 Use of this practice is intended to reduce occupationaldermatitis caused by exposure to the wet metal removalenvironment.5.2 Complaints of dermatitis conditions are often associatedwith exposures to metal removal fluid.5.3 Implementation of this practice and incorporation ofmetal removal fluid ma
39、nagement program has the potential toreduce complaints of occupational dermatitis. Elements of aneffective program include: understanding dermatitis and asso-ciated causes; prevention of dermatitis and exposure to metalremoval fluids; appropriate product selection; good manage-ment of additives, mic
40、roorganisms, and fluids; appropriateadditive (including antimicrobial pesticides) selection andadditive control; appropriate tool design and assessment andcontrol of metal removal fluid exposures including aerosols.6. Dermatitis and Associated Causes6.1 DiscussionDermatitis can result from a wide va
41、rietyof sources and processes. The most common origins are irritantor allergic responses to a chemical or physical agent. Signs andsymptoms that typify the initial onset of dermatitis include:erythema (redness); edema (swelling); pruritis (itching); and,vesiculation (pimple-like eruptions). In more
42、severe cases,fissures (deep cracks) and ulcers (open sores) can develop. Thecondition is usually reversible when exposure to the causativeagent ceases. More severe cases can require more time andsome medical attention.6.2 Some examples of occupational dermatitis include:6.2.1 Irritant contact dermat
43、itis (from irritant chemicals orphysical irritants)6.2.2 Allergic contact dermatitis,6.2.3 Folliculitis (oil acne),6.2.4 Dyshydrotic eczema,6.2.5 Keratoses,6.2.6 Eczema,6.2.7 Skin warts,6.2.8 Pigment disorders,6.2.9 Granuloma,6.2.10 Erythematous papules,6.2.11 Papulovesicles,6.2.12 Chronic lichenifi
44、ed,6.2.13 Fisssured palmar eczema,6.2.14 Discoid eczema,6.2.15 Psoriasis,6.2.16 Skin infections,6.2.17 Skin burns,6.2.18 Skin microtrauma and mechanical injury,6.2.19 Itchy nummular dermatitis.6.3 Dermatitis resulting from exposure to metal removalfluids is usually either irritant contact dermatitis
45、 or allergiccontact dermatitis.6.4 Irritant contact dermatitis can be caused by twomechanisms, chemical and physical abrasion. Examples of achemical mechanism include metal removal fluid concentrates,higher than recommended in-use metal removal fluidconcentrations, high alkalinity and solvents. Exam
46、ples ofphysical abrasion include exposure to physical irritants such asmetal shavings, turnings, or fines contained in the fluid from amalfunctioning filter; fines in dirty shop rags; and handwashing with abrasive soaps.6.5 Allergic contact dermatitis can be caused by exposure ofsensitive individual
47、s to certain metal contaminants (forexample, chromium, cobalt, or nickel) dissolved or suspendedin the metal removal fluid, or to certain ingredients, includingsome antimicrobials or odorants. Some workers are sensitizedto contaminants.6.6 Microorganisms can grow in all metal removal fluids,often pr
48、oducing an unpleasant odor. Unless open cuts, woundsor severe dermatitis are already present, microorganisms whichcommonly grow in water miscible metal removal fluids are notfrank pathogens and are not normally associated with onset ofdermatitis.6.7 The greater the concentration or duration of expos
49、ure toan irritant, the greater the possibility for skin irritation todevelop or for skin sensitization to develop in sensitiveindividuals.6.8 Consider activities outside work, such as gardening,painting, or car repair, which can contribute to dermatitis, wheninvestigating potential dermatitis causes.6.9 Any material or activity that abrades the skin or removesnatural oils from skin can cause dermatitis or predispose skinto its onset. Environmental factors such as dry air, extreme coldand changing humidity, or idiopathic factors, such as normalaging, can also
