RAW MATERIALS AND METAL OXIDES THAT MIGHT BRING ABOUT HEALTH PROBLEMS IN THE PRODUCTION OF CERAMIC

Abstract

There are raw materials and metal oxides that might bring about health problems in the production of ceramic. The precautions should be certainly taken when one is working with these raw materials and oxides in producing ceramic. Unless necessary production standards are taken, those working in the production process and those using ceramic products as well as the environment where we work are all at risk due to the diversity of raw materials and chemicals.

The precautions to be taken in the production of this matter are quite simple. However, when precautions are not taken, irreversible serious health problems may be faced. Those working in the production of ceramic should be aware of the detriments of this matter and of the ways of protecting themselves. The production should be carried out in a way to prevent these matters from infusing the body and necessary hygienic and safety standards should be followed and the individual controls should be made more often. In addition, working conditions should be kept under control through the laws often updated.

In this study, it is aimed to raise awareness about the health problems that can be caused by raw materials and metal oxides used in ceramic production in case of not complying with usage conditions. Raw materials and metal oxides used in ceramics production are generally grouped according to their usage areas and it is stated that each of them may cause which health problems.
