Abstract

We describe a 43-year-old epoxy floor layer who developed work-related asthma while exposed to an epoxy hardener based on isophorone diamine (IPDA). Challenge exposures to the curing of the epoxy resin system and subsequently to the polyfunctional amine hardener containing IPDA both elicited delayed asthmatic reactions. This report further indicates that exposure to epoxy hardeners containing polyfunctional amines should be considered as a potential cause of occupational asthma. Appropriate work hygiene measures should be implemented to minimize airborne exposure to these volatile compounds.

摘要

我们描述了一位 43 岁的环氧树脂层铺设工，他在接触异佛尔酮二胺（IPDA）基的环氧树脂固化剂时出现了与工作相关的哮喘。挑战暴露于环氧树脂体系的固化过程中，随后接触含有 IPDA 的多功能胺固化剂都引起了迟发性哮喘反应。本报告进一步表明，接触含有多官能胺的环氧树脂固化剂应被视为职业性哮喘的潜在病因。应采取适当的工作卫生措施，将这些挥发性化合物的空气暴露降至最低。
