Introduction of Aerosols

An aerosol is a suspension of fine solid particles or liquid droplets, in air or another gas. Aerosols can be natural or anthropogenic. Examples of natural aerosols are fog, dust, forest exudates and geyser steam. Examples of anthropogenic aerosols are haze, particulate air pollutants and smoke. The liquid or solid particles have diameters typically <1 μm; larger particles with a significant settling speed make the mixture a suspension, but the distinction is not clear-cut. In general conversation, aerosol usually refers to an aerosol spray that delivers a consumer product from a can or similar container.

Effects of aerosols on the environment and people

  • The spray's fine particles can penetrate deep into the lungs and are easily absorbed by the bloodstream, possibly causing a variety of health problems.
  • The practice, called "huffing," deprives the lungs and brain of oxygen and can cause brain damage or death.
  • CFC, the chemical used as a propellant was found out to have serious environmental damages. Scientists found out that this chemical depletes the Ozone layer.

Precautions of use an aerosol spray

  • The first basic rule is to be sure to read - and heed - the label.
  • Always use aerosols in a well-ventilated area and do not inhale the vapors. The chemicals in the vapor can be absorbed by the lungs and the bloodstream, potentially causing headaches, dizziness, nausea, and respiratory problems.
  • Avoid misdirected spray; it can harm the eyes and skin.
  • Keep aerosol cans away from heat and flame. Even the heat of a nearby furnace can cause a can's pressurized contents to expand and explode.
  • Dispose of the cans in your regular trash. Even though many of them are now made of recyclable materials, recycling centers do not usually accept them because they may explode. Never disassemble, puncture, or incinerate an aerosol can.
  • When shopping for household cleaners and polishes, hair sprays, and insect repellents, look for products sold as pump sprays, not aerosols. Although pumps may contain VOCs, they do not contain propellants, and the droplets they emit are larger and less likely to be inhaled. To avoid VOCs, use sprays with carbon dioxide propellants or compressed air and stay away from fast-drying products.

It is necessary to choose the quality aerosol tin can for spray packing. The quality aerosol can should be in line with the basic national standard or over standard, and to ensure that such as tight welding joints etc.
