The Dangers of Exposure to asbestos claim
Before it was banned asbestos was used in a myriad of commercial products. According to research, exposure to asbestos can cause cancer, as well as other health issues.
It is not possible to tell by simply looking at a thing if it contains asbestos. Also, you cannot taste or smell it. It can only be found when materials containing asbestos are drilled, chipped or broken.
Chrysotile
At the height of its use, chrysotile made up 99% of the asbestos produced. It was used in many industries, including construction insulation, fireproofing, and insulation. If workers are exposed to asbestos, they are likely to develop mesothelioma or other asbestos-related illnesses. Since the 1960s, when mesothelioma began to become an issue the use of asbestos has been drastically reduced. It is still found in a variety of products we use today.
Chrysotile is safe to use if you have a comprehensive safety and handling program in place. It has been determined that, at the present controlled exposure levels, there is no unneeded risk to the people handling the substance. Inhaling airborne fibres has been found to be strongly linked with lung fibrosis and lung cancer. This has been proven both for the intensity (dose) as well as the duration of exposure.
One study that studied an industrial facility that used almost exclusively chrysotile in the production of friction materials, compared mortality rates at this factory with national death rates. It was found that, for the 40 years of processing chrysotile asbestos at low levels of exposure, there was no significant additional mortality in this factory.
As opposed to other forms of asbestos, chrysotile fibers tend to be shorter. They can pass through the lungs and enter the bloodstream. They are therefore more likely to cause health problems than fibres with longer lengths.
It is very difficult for chrysotile fibers to be inhaled or to pose a health risk when mixed with cement. Fibre cement products are widely utilized in many areas of the world, including schools and hospitals.
Research has proven that amphibole asbestos, such as amosite or crocidolite is not as likely to cause disease. Amphibole asbestos types have been the primary cause of mesothelioma as well as other asbestos-related diseases. When cement and chrysotile mix and cured, a tough and flexible material is created that is able to withstand extreme environmental hazards and weather conditions. It is also easy to clean after use. Professionals can safely remove asbestos fibres once they have been removed.
Amosite
Asbestos is a category of fibrous silicates found in certain types of rock formations. It consists of six general groups: amphibole, serpentine as well as tremolite, anthophyllite, and crocidolite (IARC, 1973).
Asbestos minerals are composed of thin, long fibers that range in length from fine to broad. They can be curled or straight. They are found in nature as individual fibrils or bundles with splaying ends referred to as a fibril matrix. Asbestos minerals can be found as a powder (talc) or mixed with other minerals and sold as talcum powder and vermiculite, which have been widely used in consumer products, such as baby powder cosmetics, face powder and baby powder.
The heaviest use of asbestos was in the first two-thirds period of the 20th century, when it was used in shipbuilding, insulation, fireproofing, and other construction materials. Most occupational exposures were to asbestos fibres borne by air, but some workers were exposed to toxic talc or vermiculite and also to fragments of asbestos-bearing rocks (ATSDR, 2001). Exposures varied according to industry, time period, and geographic location.
Asbestos exposure in the workplace is usually because of inhalation. However, some workers have been exposed through skin contact or by eating food items contaminated with asbestos. Asbestos is now only found in the environment due to the natural weathering of mined minerals and the degrading of contaminated materials such as insulation, car brakes and clutches as well as ceiling and floor tiles.
It is becoming evident that non-commercial amphibole fibers can also be carcinogenic. These are fibres are not the tightly woven fibrils of the serpentine and amphibole minerals, but instead are loose, flexible and needle-like. These fibers can be found in the cliffs, mountains and sandstones of a variety of countries.
Asbestos is absorbed into the environment mostly in the form of airborne particles, however it also leaches into water and soil. This is caused by both natural (weathering of asbestos-bearing rock) as well as anthropogenic sources (disintegration of asbestos-containing wastes and disposal in landfill sites). Asbestos contamination of surface and ground water is typically a result of natural weathering, but it has also been triggered by anthropogenic activities such as milling and mining demolition and dispersal of asbestos-containing materials as well as the disposal of contaminated dumping soil in landfills (ATSDR, 2001). Inhalation exposure to airborne asbestos fibres is the most common cause of illness in people exposed to it occupationally.
Crocidolite
Exposure to asbestos through inhalation is the most common way people are exposed harmful fibres, which could then be inhaled and cause serious health issues. Mesothelioma, asbestosis and other illnesses can be caused by asbestos fibres. Exposure to asbestos fibers can occur in different ways, such as contact with contaminated clothing or building materials. The dangers of exposure are greater when crocidolite (the asbestos' blue form, is involved. Crocidolite fibers are smaller and more fragile which makes them more difficult to breathe. They can also get deeper within lung tissues. It has been linked to more mesothelioma cases than other types of asbestos.
The six main types of asbestos are chrysotile, amosite and tremolite. They are epoxiemite, tremol anthophyllite, and actinolite. Chrysotile and amosite are among the most commonly used forms of asbestos and account for 95% of commercial asbestos currently used. The other four types of asbestos haven't been as popularly used but they can be found in older buildings. They are less harmful than amosite and chrysotile, but they could be a risk when combined with other asbestos minerals or mined close to other naturally occurring mineral deposits, like talc or vermiculite.
Numerous studies have proven an association between stomach cancer and asbestos exposure. The evidence is not conclusive. Some researchers have cited an SMR (standardized death ratio) of 1.5 (95 percent confidence interval: 0.7-3.6), for all asbestos workers, and others have reported an SMR of 1,24 (95% confidence interval: 0.76-2.5), for those working in mines and chrysotile mills.
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified all forms of asbestos as carcinogenic. All types of asbestos can cause mesothelioma or other health issues, although the risks are different based on the amount of exposure individuals are exposed to, the type of asbestos used as well as the duration of exposure and the method by the way that it is breathed in or consumed. The IARC has advised that the prevention of all asbestos types should be the top priority because this is the most safe option for individuals. However, if people have been exposed to asbestos in the past and suffer from a condition such as mesothelioma and other respiratory ailments it is recommended that they seek advice from their GP or NHS 111.
Amphibole
Amphiboles comprise a variety of minerals that form needle-like or prism-like crystals. They are an inosilicate mineral that is composed of two chains of SiO4 molecules. They usually have a monoclinic structure in their crystals, although some have an orthorhombic structure. The general formula of an amphibole is A0-1B2C5T8O22(OH,F)2. The double chains are composed of (Si,Al)O4 tetrahedrons that are linked in rings of six. Tetrahedrons are distinguished from one another by octahedral sites in strips.
Amphiboles are present in metamorphic and igneous rock. They are typically dark and hard. They can be difficult to distinguish from pyroxenes as they share similar hardness and color. They also share a corresponding the cleavage pattern. However their chemistry allows an array of compositions. The chemical compositions and crystal structures of the different mineral groups in amphibole can be used to determine their composition.
The five types of asbestos that belong to the amphibole group include amosite, anthophyllite and chrysotile and Asbestos crocidolite. They also include actinolite. Each variety of asbestos has its own distinct properties. The most dangerous type of asbestos, crocidolite is made up of sharp fibers that are easy to inhale into the lung. Anthophyllite can be found in a brownish or yellowish color and is composed primarily of magnesium and iron. This kind of stone was used to create cement and insulation materials.
Amphiboles can be difficult to study due to their complex chemical structure and the numerous substitutions. A detailed analysis of the composition of amphibole mineral requires specialized techniques. The most commonly used methods for identifying amphiboles are EDS, WDS, and XRD. However, these methods can only provide approximate identifications. For instance, these techniques, cannot distinguish between magnesio hornblende and magnesio hastingsite. In addition, these techniques can not distinguish between ferro hornblende and pargasite.
