Substantial number of potentially serious hazards are associated with the Aerospace & Aviation Industry. Health hazards associated with aircraft manufacture and maintenance are primarily related to the toxicity of the materials used and their potential for exposure and fuel recovery.
The major hazards related to the fabrication of composite plastic parts involve chemical exposure to unreacted resin components and solvents during manufacturing and maintenance. A number of these compounds are confirmed or suspected human carcinogens.
Reactive and highly combustible powder metals are also used in the manufacturing and maintenance. Finely divided metal powders, such as aluminum, and titanium can spontaneously combust causing a fire and/or explosion.
