This study was performed to compare how house painters experience work with water based paints or solvent based paints, and to...
متن کاملAn experimental study to investigate the feasibility to classify paints according to neurotoxicological risks: occupational air requirement (OAR) and indoor use of alkyd paints.
The concept of occupational air requirement (OAR), representing the quantity of air required to dilute the vapor concentration in the work environment resulting from 1 l product to a concentration below the occupational exposure limit (OEL), was considered to have potential to discriminate between paints that can and cannot be used safely. The OAR is a simple algorithm with the concentration of...
متن کاملExtended Abstract—A Preliminary Study into the Effects of Cleaning Polyvinyl Acetate Paints
The effects of cleaning treatments on paintings made with synthetic paints are a major concern for conservators of modern and contemporary art. Synthetic paints typically include a complex mixture of additives that are likely to influence the paint’s response to different treatment methods, and their high sensitivity to most organic solvents narrows the choice of products that can be used. Know...
