Summary

Introduction

In the current era of globalization, it is necessary for advanced technology to meet human needs as a whole, sometimes without us realizing the absence of good control causes harm to humans themselves. In the use of technology it is unavoidable that in the current era of industrialization the transformation process in technology cannot be prevented from developing. With the use of advanced technology, it will affect the increased use of materials that have potential hazards.
