Beware of plastic construction materials
Article Abstract:
The various types of plastic consruction materials are potential sources of fire hazards, explosions and toxic releases in chemical process industries plants. Among these materials are foam-insulated metal panels and fiberglass reinforced plastic equipment. To minimize the loss, plastic materials should be approved before they are used, low-hazard types should be utilized and installed with proper features.
