Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Procedure for the detection and identification of asbestos and other fibres in fibrous inorganic materials

Notas: Sumario: A systematic procedure for the detection and identification of asbestos and other fibres in insulation and other fibrous materials is described. The need for adequate sampling and acid pre-treatment to remove the bulk of the non-fibrous matrix of such samples is stressed. The method requires an initial low-power stereo-microscopic examination followed by petrological polarization microscopic identification of the fibres. The optical characteristics required for the unambiguous identification of the common asbestos minerals are givenRegistros relacionados: En: The Annals of occupational hygiene. - Oxford [etc.]. - nº 2, 1979 ; p. 127-139Materia / lugar / evento: Higiene industrial Contaminantes químicos Fibras Amianto Materiales inorgánicos Control de contaminantes Métodos de análisis Títulos secundários: Título: The Annals of occupational hygiene
