Respir-X Dust Masks
Respiratory
contaminants can be divided into two basic groups: particles and gases. How you
protect yourself depends on which type of hazard it is.
Particles
are very tiny pieces of matter. If the particle is dry it is called a dust. If
the particle is liquid it is a mist. And if the particle is created by burning
material it is known as a fume. Breathing in these particles can clog and
irritate you respiratory system.
Gases are
substances that have no identifiable shape or form. They cannot be seen and you
may not be able to smell them. Some liquids, when heated, become gases known as
vapor. Gases and vapors can be dangerous when breathed, they can damage not
only your respiratory system, but other organs as well.
