Analysis of the effects of black cat carbon black on human health

Black cat carbon black has gradually evolved into an important pigment in the industrial field. At present, the world consumes about 6 million tons of rubber carbon black and nearly 300,000 tons of special carbon black. Carbon black is manufactured by a precisely controlled production process and can be formed into 50 different varieties. There are already 30 kinds of carbon black used in the rubber industry, and more varieties of carbon black for coloring and other purposes. Then, more and more carbon black is needed, and more and more manufacturers of carbon black. There are more and more production lines. Does the production of carbon black harm the human body? Hengxin pigment carbon black will share the impact of carbon black on human health today.

We all know that carbon black is a powder produced by incomplete combustion of carbonaceous raw materials, that is, powder is sure to cause harm to the human body through the respiratory tract and skin. If the human body inhales dust such as carbon black for a long time, the lung tissue will have fibrotic lesions, gradually harden, and to some extent, can lose normal respiratory function, causing carbon black pneumoconiosis. So how should we avoid the harm caused by carbon black to workers' health?

First of all, it is necessary to set an occupational hazard warning sign so that every worker knows that the current working environment has an impact on the body and keeps abreast of his protective measures.

Second, it is very important to supervise and inspect the personnel at the production site to use personal labor protection articles. The protective equipment is the supporting facilities for the production line. It must be supervised and reminded to avoid workers not paying attention or forgetting.

Third, since it is dust, it is necessary to regularly check the operation of ventilation, dust removal and equipment, and find problems in a timely manner.

Fourth, implement “wet work” to clean up the dust on the surface of the ground, walls and equipment after work stoppage.

Fifth, keep the on-site cleaning and disinfection equipment intact.

Black carbon rubber special carbon black itself is harmless to the human body, but the impact of dust on the human body can not be ignored, and the independent health monitoring of workers is also one of the necessary measures. Many carbon black manufacturers are also very reminded of independent health education. important. Especially when the workers feel abnormal body, such as the metal taste in the mouth, loss of appetite, ups and downs in the upper abdomen, abdominal pain and constipation, memory loss or tooth wide star pain, long-term cough, etc., must go to the occupational disease medical institutions for treatment.
