The Dangers of Exposure to Asbestos
Before it was banned asbestos was used in a myriad of commercial products. According to research, asbestos exposure can cause cancer, as well as other health issues.
It is difficult to tell by taking a look at something if it is made of asbestos. Neither can you smell or taste it. Asbestos is only detected when materials containing it are broken or drilled.
Chrysotile
At its height, chrysotile comprised up 99% of the asbestos produced. It was employed in a variety of industries like construction, insulation, and fireproofing. If workers are exposed to asbestos, they could develop mesothelioma along with other asbestos-related illnesses. Fortunately, the use of this dangerous mineral has decreased significantly since awareness of mesothelioma began to spread in the 1960's. It is still found in many products we use in the present.
Chrysotile is safe to use if you have a comprehensive safety and handling program in place. Personnel handling chrysotile aren't exposed to an unreasonable amount of risk at current limit of exposure. Lung fibrosis, lung cancer and mesothelioma have been strongly linked to breathing airborne respirable fibres. This has been confirmed both for intensity (dose) as and the duration of exposure.
One study that looked into a factory that used almost all chrysotile as its friction materials, compared mortality rates at this factory with national mortality rates. It was found that over the course of 40 years, processing chrysotile asbestos at low levels of exposure, there was no significant increase in mortality in this particular factory.
As opposed to other forms of asbestos, chrysotile fibers tend to be smaller. They can penetrate the lungs and enter the bloodstream. This makes them much more prone to causing health effects than fibres with longer lengths.
When chrysotile gets mixed with cement, it's extremely difficult for the fibres to be airborne and cause health hazards. Fibre cement products are used in various parts of the world, including schools and hospitals.
Research has demonstrated that amphibole asbestos such as amosite or crocidolite is not as likely to cause disease. Amphibole types like these are the main source of mesothelioma as well as other asbestos-related diseases. When cement and chrysotile mix with cement, a tough product is produced which is able to withstand the most extreme environmental hazards and weather conditions. It is also simple to clean after use. Asbestos fibres are easily removed by a professional and removed.
Amosite
Asbestos is a category of fibrous silicates that are found in a variety of rock formations. It is composed of six general groups: amphibole, serpentine anthophyllite, tremolite, anthophyllite, crocidolite (IARC, 1973).
Asbestos minerals are made up of long, thin fibers that range in length, ranging from very thin to broad and straight to curled. These fibres can be found in nature in bundles or as individual fibrils. Asbestos minerals are also found in the form of a powder (talc) or mixed with other minerals and sold as vermiculite and talcum powder, which have been widely used in consumer products, such as baby powder cosmetics, face powder and other.
The greatest use of asbestos occurred in the first two-thirds of the 20th century when it was utilized in insulation, shipbuilding, fireproofing, and other construction materials. Most occupational exposures were asbestos fibres in the air, however certain workers were exposed to vermiculite or talc that was contaminated and also to fragments of asbestos-bearing rock (ATSDR, 2001). Exposures varied from industry industry, era to era and geographic location.
The exposure to asbestos in the workplace is mostly caused by inhalation. However there have been instances of workers being exposed via skin contact or by eating food items contaminated with asbestos. Asbestos is only found in the environment because of natural weathering and degradation of contaminated products like ceiling and floor tiles as well as car brakes and clutches as well as insulation.
It is becoming apparent that non-commercial amphibole fibres may also be carcinogenic. These are fibres are not the tightly woven fibrils of the amphibole and serpentine minerals but instead are loose, flexible and needle-like. They can be found in the mountains, sandstones and cliffs from a variety of nations.
Asbestos is able to enter the environment in a variety ways, including through airborne particles. It can also be released into soil or water. This occurs both from natural (weathering and erosion of asbestos-bearing rocks) and the anthropogenic (disintegration and removal of asbestos-containing wastes from landfill sites) sources. Asbestos contamination in ground and surface waters is primarily due to natural weathering. However it can also be caused anthropogenically, such as by the milling and mining of asbestos-containing materials, demolition and dispersal, and the removal of contaminated dumping material in landfills (ATSDR 2001). Asbestos fibres that are emitted from the air are the primary cause of illness in people exposed to asbestos in their work.
Crocidolite
Inhalation exposure is the most common method of exposure to asbestos fibres. The fibres can penetrate the lung and cause serious health problems. Mesothelioma and asbestosis as well as other illnesses are all caused by asbestos fibres. Exposure to the fibres can also take place in other ways, like contact with contaminated clothes or building materials. This type of exposure is especially dangerous when crocidolite (the blue form of asbestos) is involved. Crocidolite fibers are smaller and more fragile and therefore easier to breathe. They can also get deeper into lung tissues. It has been linked to a larger number of mesothelioma-related cases than any other type of asbestos claim.
The six main types of asbestos are chrysotile amosite, epoxiemite, tremolite, anthophyllite and actinolite. Chrysotile and amosite are the most frequently used types of asbestos, and comprise 95% of all commercial asbestos in use. The other four asbestos types aren't as prevalent, but could still be found in older structures. They are less hazardous than amosite and chrysotile, asbestos but they can pose a risk when combined with other asbestos minerals or when mined close to other naturally occurring mineral deposits, like vermiculite or talc.
Several studies have found an association between exposure to asbestos and stomach cancer. A number of studies have confirmed that asbestos exposure is linked to stomach. However there is no conclusive evidence. Some researchers have cited a SMR (standardized death ratio) of 1.5 (95% confidence interval: 0.7-3.6), for all asbestos workers, and others report an SMR of 1,24 (95 percent confidence interval: 0.76-2.5), for those working in mines and chrysotile mills.
IARC The IARC, which is the International Agency for Research on Cancer has classified all forms of asbestos as carcinogenic. All asbestos types can cause mesothelioma however the risks differ based on how much exposure is taken, what type of asbestos is involved, and the length of time that exposure lasts. The IARC has advised that avoid all forms of asbestos is the best option, as this is the best option for individuals. However, if people have been exposed to asbestos in the past and are suffering from a disease such as mesothelioma, or other respiratory diseases and require advice, they should seek out guidance from their doctor or NHS 111.
Amphibole
Amphibole is a class of minerals that form long prism or needle-like crystals. They are a type of silicate mineral composed of double chains of SiO4 molecules. They have a monoclinic system of crystals, but some have an orthorhombic structure. The general formula of an amphibole is A0-1B2C5T8O22(OH,F)2. The double chains consist of (Si,Al)O4 Tetrahedrons, which are connected in rings of six. Tetrahedrons may be separated by strips of octahedral site.
Amphiboles are present in metamorphic and igneous rock. They are typically dark and hard. They are sometimes difficult to differentiate from pyroxenes since they share similar hardness and color. They also share a similar design of cleavage. However their chemistry permits many different compositions. The various mineral groups in amphibole can be identified by their chemical compositions and crystal structures.
The five types of asbestos in the amphibole class include amosite, anthophyllite and chrysotile and crocidolite. They also include actinolite. Each type of asbestos comes with its own distinctive properties. Crocidolite is the most hazardous asbestos type. It contains sharp fibers that are easily inhaled into the lung. Anthophyllite can range from yellow to brown in color and is composed of magnesium and iron. It was previously used in cement and insulation materials.
Amphiboles are difficult to analyze due to their complicated chemical structure and numerous substitutions. Therefore, a thorough analysis of their composition requires specialized techniques. EDS, WDS and asbestos XRD are the most commonly used methods of identifying amphiboles. However, these methods can only give approximate identifications. These techniques, for example, cannot distinguish between magnesio hornblende and hastingsite. Additionally, these techniques do not distinguish between ferro-hornblende and pargasite.
