Abstract |
Analysis of skin diseases caused by cutting fluids classified from a dermatological point of view according to their water content; pure mineral oils rarely cause eczema - instead, they cause oil acne and skin tumours; cutting fluids with high water content (soluble oils, semi-synthetic and synthetic liquids) cause skin problems such as (commonly) irritant contact dermatitis, and (less commonly) allergic contact dermatitis. Preventive measures can be applied at the level of the liquid, the machines or the workers. Some of these measures are described. |
