(Arbetslivsinstitutet, 1998)Plastics are subjected to elevated temperatures in the processing. This gives rise to complex mixtures of substances. The quality and quantity of these depends, e.g. on the type of the polymer, additives, and the degradation ... -
The Nordic Expert Group for Criteria Documentation of Health Risks from Chemicals : 125. Toluene
(Arbetslivsinstitutet, 2000)The major route of toluene exposure is inhalation. Toluene is to a large extent metabolised in the liver and excreted in urine as hippuric acid. Toluene has a low acute toxicity. Toluene vapours causes complaints of eye ... -
The Nordic Expert Group for Criteria Documentation of Health Risks from Chemicals : 128. Triglycidyl isocyanurate
(Arbetslivsinstitutet, 2001)Triglycidyl isocyanurate (TGIC) is a solid, slightly soluble in water. It has a very low vapour pressure, and will therefore occur as dust at the workplace. TGIC is an epoxy compound containing three epoxy groups. Technical ... -
The Nordic Expert Group for Criteria Documentation of Health Risks from Chemicals : 131. Lithium and lithium compounds
(Arbetslivsinstitutet, 2002)Lithium is a light soft metal. It reacts with water to form lithium hydroxide, but less vigorously than sodium. All lithium compounds are monovalent. In industry lithium and compounds are used e.g. in the manufacture of ... -
The Nordic Expert Group for Criteria Documentation of Health Risks from Chemicals : 134. Penicillins
(Arbetslivsinstitutet, 2004)This document reviews the health risks from occupational exposure to penicillins. Penicillins are produced in large amounts for use as antibiotics. Few quantitative data on occupational exposure are available, however, the ... -
