The concentration of harmful substances during the work of the Malyar.
The concentrations of xylol and white spirit in the air when stained with a brush of cold heating batteries (temperatures 0-13 ° C) with oil paint did not exceed the MPC. However, it increased sharply when painting (the same paint and the same method) of batteries heated to 80-90 ° C, reaching levels exceeding the MPC by 2.1 times.
The highest content of xylol in the air was accompanied by varnish 177 sanitary-technical networks (on average 121 + 10.5 mg/m3), 1 painting with oil paint (106 + 6.5 mg/m3) and a floor with a mastic of RB-12 with a White -pirite when sticked by PHV tiles (77+6.0 mg/m3). When performing these operations, the content of xylol in the air exceeded the MPC by 1.5-2.4 times. The smallest concentrations of xylol – (38+2.0 – 44,+2.5 mg/m3) are registered when coating with varnish 177 external balcony fences and oil paint of window frames.
Xille entered the air and with auxiliary operations – filtering paint, cleaning the tool. Its average concentrations fluctuated in the range of 90-218 mg/m3. In work with increased harmfulness, special hair care is required.
When painting floors in children’s institutions, instead of oil paint, in some cases, PF-266 paint containing up to 85% solvent is used. Air samples taken when painting a floor with an area of 30 m2 with a brush and a roller in winter, gave the highest performance indicators of xylol: 713 mg/m3 at the beginning of color and 860 mg/m2 at the end (on average 803+18 mg/m3).
In the same period of the year, civilian construction was noted at civilian construction with mechanized-carrier coating with oil paints of temperature heating batteries 0-13 ° C (127-235 mg/m3, on average 178+16 mg/m3) and internal surfaces of the built-in cabinets (153-450 mg/m3, on average 244+23 mg/m3).
