摘要: |
Advanced composite material (ACM) use in the military and private sector is increasing. As a result of an aircraft crash, the Air Force Safety Center expressed concern over the absence of standardized Air Force policy, procedures, and training for personnel responding to a composite materials incident. The purpose of this study was to conduct an exposure assessment during operations typically conducted following an aircraft mishap. Industrial hygiene and environmental samples were collected to identify combustion by-products. Personal breathing zone samples were collected while workers conducted mishap investigation and recovery operations. Aircraft type (quantity of composites), extent of fire and physical damage, terrain, and environmental conditions should be considered when determining the composite hazard at a crash site. |
