| Abstract |
Pollution of the air with vinyl chloride and resin dust is possible during the manufacture of latex polyvinyl chloride. Such pollution is caused by disruption of the seal of equipment and by carrying out certain operations manually. During the study of the state of health of the workers, some of them were found to have changes characteristic for the initial forms of chronic vinyl chloride intoxication: slightly pronounced disorders of the vegetative-vascular regulation, symptoms of vegetative polyneuritis and thermoregulatory disorders. An improvement in the conditions of labor of workers employed in manufacturing latex polyvinyl chloride can be attained by means of sealing the equipment, improving technological operations and improving the function of ventilation. |
