SAFETY MEASURES IN THE MANUFACTURING OF COMPOSITE MATERIALS BASED ON EPOXY AND PHENOL-FORMALDEHYDE RESINS

Abstract

The article deals with the dangers, which can appear during manufacturing and processing of composite materials. Actuality of the theme is due to the fact, that the modern industry can not be limited by the use of traditional materials, that’s why they are replaced by composites which are widely used in almost all branches of industry. For getting better properties of composites to their content are added various additives, to get better exploitation characteristics, but additives, monomers and composites during their processing can have a negative impact on the human body. In particular, during the manufacture of materials can be used or release during the processing of substances which are toxic and may lead to poisoning. Both in the production of composites and in their processing in products, in the air of working room appear various harmful gaseous substances and dust, which can be the cause of the negative changes in the body of workers. In order to avoid professional injuries, adverse health effects and professional disease, it is necessary to follow the technologies of manufacturing of composites and safety measures that are considered in this article.
