Abstract

A new occupational disorder characterized by skin sclerosis is described. This disease developed acutely in workmen exposed to the vapor of epoxy resins. Based on animal experiments, an amine [bis(4-amino-3-methyl-cyclohexyl) methane] is suspected of being the causative agent of the skin sclerosis.
