To investigate if the levels of optical radiation hazards in glassblowing are well classified according to the hazard types defined in the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) standard for industrial eye protectors.
We carried out radiometric measurements, and questionnaire survey in 4 university glassblowing laboratories, and 3 private studios.
There is exposure to low levels of UV and IR radiation in all glassblowing operations. A supra-threshold IR radiation level exists in the craft glassblowing. The use of eye protectors is based on past experience regardless of the level of ocular exposure.
Optical radiation hazards exist in both craft and scientific glassblowing. There seems to be an inadequate understanding about radiation types encountered by glassblowers.
调查吹制玻璃过程中的光辐射危害水平是否根据加拿大标准协会(CSA)工业护目镜标准中定义的危害类型得到了很好的分类。
我们在4个大学吹制玻璃实验室和3个私人工作室进行了辐射测量和问卷调查。
在所有吹制玻璃操作中均存在低水平的紫外线和红外线辐射暴露。在工艺玻璃吹制中存在超阈值的红外线辐射水平。护目镜的使用基于过去的经验,而不考虑眼部暴露水平。
工艺和科学玻璃吹制中均存在光辐射危害。吹制玻璃工人对所遇到的辐射类型似乎了解不足。
