Plan of Action and Milestones for Navy Combustion Toxicity.

Abstract

This report reviews the Workshop on Toxicology of Combustion Products held at the Naval Research Laboratory on 15-16 October 1980. Participants included U.S. Navy, other government activities, and U.S. Industry. The use of plastic materials has become more prevalent in the design of equipment and in shipboard construction. Use of these materials in quantity can create severe generation of toxic gases which can incapacitate or kill personnel in shipboard fires even if they are not in the immediate fire area. (Author)
