Is industrial argon harmful to the human body What is the harm of argon to the human body

Argon itself is not toxic, but it has a suffocating effect at high concentrations. There is a risk of suffocation when the concentration of argon in the air is higher than 33%. When the concentration of argon exceeds 50%, severe symptoms appear, and when the concentration reaches more than 75%, death can occur within minutes.

Liquid argon can injure**, and eye contact can cause inflammation. Therefore, the production site should be ventilated, and the technical personnel engaged in argon-related work should regularly conduct occupational disease physical examinations every year to ensure good health.

If you use TIG welding, you'll be fine, because as long as you work outdoors, the concentration will never reach a suffocating concentration.

The main hazards of argon to the human body are as follows:Although hypoxia is systemic, the central nervous system of the human body is the most sensitive to hypoxia, and the mild ones are manifested as headache, dizziness, weakness, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms, and in severe cases, there will be trance, convulsions and even coma, and even lead to sudden death of people on the scene.

Due to the damaging effect of systemic hypoxia, patients may have pulmonary edema, myocardial damage, liver and kidney damage and other manifestations of multi-organ dysfunction.

Argon is an inert gas and has no direct harm to the human body. However, if the industrial use is carried out, the exhaust gas produced is very harmful to the human body, which will cause silicosis, eye damage and other conditions.

Although it is an inert gas, it is also a suffocating gas, and a large amount of inhalation can cause suffocation. The production site should be ventilated, and the technical personnel engaged in argon-related work should regularly undergo occupational disease physical examinations every year to ensure good health.

Argon itself is non-toxic, but in a relatively confined space, once a high concentration is formed, it will inevitably significantly reduce the proportion of oxygen content in the air, resulting in hypoxic asphyxiation. When the concentration of argon in the air is higher than 33%, there is a risk of suffocation, when the concentration of argon exceeds 50%, the human body will have severe hypoxia symptoms, and when the concentration reaches more than 75%, it can lead to the death of the contact within a few minutes. Liquid argon will absorb a lot of heat during the gasification process, polluting the mucous membranes and causing frostbite.

Although hypoxia is systemic, the central nervous system of the human body is the most sensitive to hypoxia, and the mild ones are manifested as headache, dizziness, weakness, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms, and in severe cases, there will be trance, convulsions and even coma, and even lead to sudden death of people on the scene.
