Asbestos Mineralogy and Health Effects

Meral Dogan; A. Umran Dogan

Asbestos, characterized as a group A human carcinogen, is a generic name given to the fibrous variety of six naturally occurring minerals: chrysotile, actinolite, tremolite, anthophyllite, amosite, and crocidolite. The permissible exposure limits recommended by WHO is 1.0F/cc or below. The identification of asbestos fibers can be performed through morphologic, crystal structural, and compositional analyses. It is widely accepted that asbestos fibers can be associated with asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma. Despite extensive cancer studies in humans, certain controversies remain about asbestos exposure and cancer. Today, only chrysotile is used as an asbestos material because it is considered to be less potent. The key questions concern whether or not, and to what extent, exposure to chrysotile asbestos, including its natural contaminant tremolite, causes mesothelioma. Many companies ceased production of asbestos-containing insulations, plasters, ceiling tiles, and cement products because of liability issues. However, there is a continued demand for inexpensive and durable construction materials.
