Core–shell morphology of welding fume micro- and nanoparticles
TLDR
In this article, the same authors used low energy ion erosion in secondary ion mass spectrometry to analyze welded fume particles, which were collected during the welding process of steel performed with three different techniques: electron beam welding, gas tungsten arc welding, and shielded metal arc welding (SMAW).About:

Physicochemical characterisation of different welding aerosols
Balazs Berlinger,Nathalie Benker,Stephan Weinbruch,B. L`Vov,Martin Ebert,W. Koch,Dag G. Ellingsen,Yngvar Thomassen,Yngvar Thomassen +8 more
TL;DR: Physicochemical properties important in exposure characterisation of four different welding aerosols were investigated and a clear size dependence of the particle chemical composition was encountered in the case of manual metal arc welding aerosol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metal fume fever and polymer fume fever.
TL;DR: A review of the peer-reviewed medical literature as it relates to metal fume fever and polymer fume Fever in order to describe their epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and prognosis.
Characterization of Welding Fume from SMAW Electrodes — Part II The composition and morphology of SMAW fume particles are determined using advanced characterization techniques
TL;DR: In this paper, an electrical low pressure impactor (ELPI) was used to collect welding fume from E6010, E7018, and E308-16 electrodes and determine number and mass distributions based on fume particle diameter.
Journal ArticleDOI
Grain size, chemistry, and structure of fine and ultrafine particles in stainless steel welding fumes
B. Moroni,C. Viti +1 more
TL;DR: A combined SEM-TEM study was performed on samples of metal inert gas (MIG) stainless steel (SS) arc welding fumes to characterize fine and ultrafine particle fractions in terms of size distributions, crystal structures, and chemistry.

Reduction of nanoparticle exposure to welding aerosols by modification of the ventilation system in a workplace
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured particle size distributions in booths with two different ventilation patterns in an occupational environment with welding operations underway, and demonstrated the impact of change of ventilation methods on the aerosol size distributions at different locations: close to the weld, in the vicinity of the welder's face, and in the exhaust duct.

Associations between mortality and air pollution in central Europe.
Annette Peters,J Skorkovsky,F Kotesovec,J Brynda,C Spix,Heinz Erich Wichmann,Joachim Heinrich +6 more
TL;DR: Data from the coal basin in the Czech Republic suggested an increase in mortality associated with the concentration of particulate matter in a highly polluted setting in Central Europe that is consistent with the associations observed in other western European cities and in the United States.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to the analysis of stainless-steel welding aerosols
TL;DR: Aerosol particles (fume) from manual metal arc welding of stainless steel with E316L-16 electrodes were analysed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
