What is Asbestos?

"Asbestos", was determined six natural mineral Fibers that have already been used for Business Purposes. Can be found in Hundreds of Countries, on almost every continent. The Fibers belong to two distinct groups of mineral known as Serpentine and Amphibole.

A Detailed diagram of where the Asbestos can be found in the home
The group of Serpentine, Usually in a asbestiformes hedgehog contains only one variety known as tshrisotile. The group of amfiboles, which is the same as needles, contains five Varieties asbestiformes: anthofillite, Gruner (amosite), ryebekk (krosidolite) of tremolite and aktinolite.

The Yo It bureau of face is listed over 100 mineral Fibers as Asbestos - as "Fibers, however, the Government of the United States unshod only the six Modules (mainly due to the effective pressure in favor of Asbestos and Stein Industries.)

The very thin Fibers are separable, Hundreds of Thinner than a human hair and to small to be China with the naked eye. Safe and healthy at work (sorrows) Defines the Fibers of concern, at least five Micrometers in length and in the least three times long as their dyameters. A frame of demons, mineralogist working with Fibers to a thousand times long as their diameter.

Asbestos 
The six Asbestos Mineral recognize, Silicates Considered (Molecules with silicon and oxygen), included:

Tshrisotile - (also known as green or white Asbestos, from the Greek word for a good, Silky hair ") appears as curly Fibers is white and 95 percent of Asbestos used. Tshrisotile mind in the world, but most the U.S. supply comes from tshrisotile Canada, Africa and the former Soviet Union. ssyentists hold that this is the least Toxic of all form of Asbestos.
Krosidolite - (also known as blue Asbestos or ryebekk), Composed of Fibers of law, krosidolite is the South Africa and Australia. It is Believed to be the most Toxic of all the mineral Asbestos.

Amosite - (also known as kummington gruenerite Asbestos or brown) the trade name "Amoss" is an Acronym for Asbestos face of South Africa, still the face of Amoss. Amosite is also the same in form, but weak in its structure and excellent for use in Thermal Insulation.
Anthofillite - the shape of Asbestos was weak, white, and contains various form of iron. We found that an excellent resistance to Chemicals and Heat.
Tremolite - in Liberia, tremolite and then in white plaster. Tremolite also be found naturally in mineral form, some of asbestiformes. He was the main Ingredient of Talcum Industrial and business. 

Aktinolite - Usually Prismatic structure flat and Elongated. Aktinolite also comes in different form of asbestiformes and has little resistance to Chemicals.
The last five amfiboles (which Translates as "ambiguity" in Greek) Types of crystal structure have a somewhat 'in March complicated as tshrisotile and not as Widely used in commercial products such as tshrisotile. Thanks to its structure, amfiboles tend to remain long in the lungs as tshrisotile and are more likely to cause disease due to this factor. Some very small possibility of Contamination of tshrisotile Fibers amfiboles are guilty of most cancer Deaths caused by exposure to Asbestos.

Asbestiformes mineral found in ultramafik and Serpentine. The Rocks are in the United States, particularly near the mountain Regions. Calif. is Exceptionally rich in Asbestos, in which the mineral can be found in at least 44 of the 58 Counties of the state (some Geologists report found Asbestos in 50 of the 58 Counties). Asbestos Fibers is especially near fault zone, where the temperature, pressure and time are the Molecules in Crystals asbestiformes.

Where can naturally present is Asbestos? 
Although Asbestos is the United States, map Compiled a Database of the Chairman it record geologikal survey, together with the literature on the history of Asbestos face, Shows a great group of Deposits D 'Asbestos of course the East scoop of the appalatshyan mountains ofnorthern New Jersey, through northern Georgia and Alabama. Fairfax County, Virginia, a total of eleven square kilometers and is supported by the natural form of Asbestos. The County has established specific Procedures for monitoring and notification for the Construction in the area.After a line of Asbestos Deposits is running through the center of Vermont and Maine Extends.Klusters can be found in (but are not Limited to) the Upper peninsula of Michigan, through the Rocky Mountains, northern and central Washington, Northeast and Southwest Oregon, and a high Concentration is Located North of Tucson, Arizona. Many fields are Located in Calif., his lines of fracture, the foot of the Sierra, the klamath Mountains and the Coastal Mountains of Calif.. Calif. is also home to one of the Largest Deposits of Asbestos in the world, which is in the clear zone management in return.

Russia (currently the world leader in the sector), China, Kazakhstan, Brazil, Zimbabwe, and over 15 other Countries have a history of production of Asbestos. Only opinion Operations in China are Growing, in particular the Needs of the country. Tshrisotile Asbestos is still largeli Determined by Canada, which Supplies 89 percent of Asbestos used in the United States between 2002 and 2005. Canadian Authorities appreciate the work of the mineral are present in almost two thirds of the earth's crust.

The Extraction of Asbestos in the United States reporters that Concluded in 2002, but the United States Continued to export over one thousand tons per year, included Asbestos - with material (akm) and re - Exported material that Entered the the United States within the strange.The Chairman it geologikal Subway Reports that the United States imports about two thousand tons per year.

Because Asbestos be used? 
Innate resistance to heat and fire of the mineral is new of Asbestos so valuable in both Industrial and domestic. More important characteristic is his reluctance to conduct electricity. The Fibers are nice, Flexible and can be buildings in Yarns and factory blaze which was difficult to travel, and has excellent Insulation Properties. E 'Virtually Indestructible by heat, salt water, Corrosive Chemicals (especially alkaline), and no chemical or Biological process. The Mixture of Fibers and other material such as Asphalt or concrete, and make the products in March potent, more Flexible and resistant to fire. Not melt or water Evaporates, that Makes the Fibers easy mixing of light.

Because Asbestos is so dangerous? 
The reality is that Asbestos Fibers to be separated Easily is that Contributes to the common Inhalation and Ingestion of Asbestos. The shape of the Fibers Reacts Negatively with human tissue and Biological Processes. If Inhaled or Ingested, the Fibers can be Presented in Coatings for Fabrics of organ, most Commonly the lungs and digestive system. Over time, the inflammation of the case Presented the Fibers and cell damage, which Eventually may lead to a variety of terminal Illnesses. Despite the Dangers of Asbestos has been recognized since antikviti, the ore used to make Kostic was a series of products, many of which are Normally found in the home. Today, the use of Asbestos in the United States is more Regulated, but the majority of Residents in the United States have the impression that Asbestos is band in late 1980. The Environmental Protection Against has Imposed a ban Treaty in 1989, but the ban is Rejected by the card of appeals for the Fifth circus, in 1991. Asbestos is known to cause Asbestosis, lung cancer, Mesothelioma and Asbestos exposure Increases the risk of throat, Gastrointestinal, colon, kidney, Esophagus and cancer of the gallbladder. Those who suspect that may have already Exposed to Asbestos to talk with a doctor to be a doctor to assess exposure to Asbestos.
