Investigation of injury data at a detonator facility
Publication date: Available online 28 August 2015 Source:Journal of Chemical Health and Safety Author(s): Michael E. Cournoyer, Marylou Apodaca, Robert A. Bustamante, Mark A. Armijo Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) has been the design agency for nuclear weapon detonators for over 70 years. Detonator development, in support of the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) nuclear weapons program, account for most activities performed by the Detonator Production Agency (DET). Management of work-related injuries includes in-field monitoring of injury/illness reports. Employing Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma busines...

Suitability of polycarbonate safety glasses for UV laser eye protection
Publication date: Available online 26 July 2015 Source:Journal of Chemical Health and Safety Author(s): John Jankovic, Burton R. Ogle, Tracy L. Zontek, Michael D. Biegalski, Scott M. Hollenbeck, Tina M. Wells Commonly used impact resistant polycarbonate (PC) safety glasses were evaluated for suitability of use in a high power, ultra-violet (UV) laser lab in place of laser eyewear. Product bulletins for the glasses tested all specified 99.9% or greater UV absorbance for their PC materials. Safety glasses from various manufacturers were exposed to 1,501 pulses of UV light (248nm) from a 0.6J krypton fluoride ...

Case study – A two liter pyridine spill in an undergraduate laboratory
Publication date: Available online 11 July 2015 Source:Journal of Chemical Health and Safety Author(s): Barrett Eichler A pyridine bottle broke in an undergraduate stockroom, spilling two liters of pyridine onto a student, a bench and the floor. Details are discussed about the safety of the student, the subsequent evacuations of laboratories and finally the whole science building. Remediation of the spill is also discussed. A faculty member with an auto-immune disease was affected by their involvement in the spill cleanup, and the consideration of chemists with auto-immune diseases and their interaction with chemical ...
