Disposable protective masks: 5 misconceptions about using personal masks! Kuta Technology will give you a popular science today, so let's read the following articles together! Wearing suitable protective equipment is an important line of defense to protect the life and health of employees. Correct use of the appropriate level of protective equipment can effectively prevent occupational poisoning and occupational diseases. However, in the inspection of enterprises, it was found that there is a misunderstanding of the use of personal protective equipment in many enterprises, which is highlighted in five aspects, such as whether personal protective equipment can be worn, which can be used for dust and masks. We should attach great importance to and take effective measures to eliminate misunderstandings in the use of personal protective equipment. Myth 1: PPE can be worn or not Personal protective equipment can eliminate or reduce the impact of occupational disease hazards on workers' health. The Law on the Prevention and Control of Occupational Diseases stipulates that employers must provide workers with protective equipment as required, and workers must wear protective equipment. Myth 2: There is no odor in the workshop, so no need for personal protective equipment Many harmful gases are colorless, odorless, tasteless, without warning, and imperceptible. Even with taste, there are limitations and individual differences in the way the senses perceive the external world. Therefore, over-trusting feelings can lead to occupational poisoning.
Myth 3: Dust-proof gauze masks can be used Ordinary gauze masks cannot be used as dust masks. Although the gauze masks we use are cheap, they absorb sweat in summer and keep warm in winter. However, such masks (16 layers thick) cannot prevent the harm of breathing dust, which can easily lead to pneumoconiosis. A special Dust Mask is required. Myth 4:Medical masks are used to prevent viruses Surgical masks can prevent the spread of disease through droplets, but they cannot filter toxic gases. For different poisons, respirators with different filtering effects are required. Activated carbon respirators can be used to prevent general volatile organic gas emissions. Myth 5:Dust masks can be washed and reused The filter material of the dust mask cannot be washed with water. The filter materials used in dust masks are generally non-woven materials, and some rely on the electrostatic charge on the fibers to filter breathable dust. After cleaning, the microstructure of the filter material will be damaged, invisible cracks and holes will appear, a large amount of static charge will be lost, and the filtration performance will be seriously reduced.
