Asbestos Presence in a Factory that Produced Asbestos-Containing Products
In 2007, research was carried out to determine the type and amount of asbestos fibers in a Croatian factory with a long history of making asbestos-containing products.Since the 1970s, asbestos fibres have been considered carcinogenic in humans i.e as a known cancer-causing agent. In the environment, asbestos fibres are inactive and naturally resist biodegradation. In time, fibres can only be gr...

متن کاملSimulation tests to assess occupational exposure to airborne asbestos from asphalt-based roofing products.
This study sought to evaluate exposure from specific products to evaluate potential risk from roof repair activities. Five asbestos-containing fibered roof coatings and plastic cements, representing a broad range of these types of products, were tested in exposure simulations. These products were applied to representative roof substrates. Release of asbestos fibers during application and sandin...
متن کاملSimulation tests to assess occupational exposure to airborne asbestos from artificially weathered asphalt-based roofing products.
Historically, asbestos-containing roof cements and coatings were widely used for patching and repairing leaks. Although fiber releases from these materials when newly applied have been studied, there are virtually no useful data on airborne asbestos fiber concentrations associated with the repair or removal of weathered roof coatings and cements, as most studies involve complete tear-out of old...
متن کاملHyperspectral Discrimination of Asbestos‐Cement Roofing
Asbestos is characterised by a unique set of physical and chemical properties, which has led to its many applications [28], such as roofing coatings: flat and corrugated sheets, floors, water supply pipes, textiles, rope, cord and yarn, paper, friction and composition materials, household products, plastic fillers, clutches, brake linings, gaskets and pads for automobiles [30]. Asbestos‐cement ...
