  • Title: Cement-related burns.
    Author: Morley SE, Humzah D, McGregor JC, Gilbert PM.
    Journal: Burns; 1996 Dec; 22(8):646-7. PubMed ID: 8982549.
    Abstract:
    Burns caused by prolonged contact of wet cement with skin are common in this country. Recent literature has highlighted other ways in which the use and manufacture of cement can lead to burn injuries, notably through explosion and contact with hot powder during manufacturing. These injuries are uncommon in this country and potentially very serious. Case studies are presented of two men injured in such a way in the same incident at a cement-manufacturing plant.
