| Resumen |
The paper industry uses slime control agents on a large scale. These agents (generally thiocarbamates in solvents such as dimethylformamide), which act against microorganisms and thus prevent formation of slimy plugs or deterioration of the paper, are present in the water vapour released by the paper during manufacture. Swedish research has found ethylenebis(dithiocarbamate) to be carcinogenic and teratogenic, and dimethylformamide teratogenic. Pregnant women should thus not be exposed. Appendices: list of compounds used as slime control agents and their solvents, with the associated health hazards. |
