CALIDRIA Asbestos is produced by a proprietary manufactur ing process that yields unusually high fiber content and more complete fiber liberation from the nacural bundles. As a result, CALIDRIA Asbestos goes up to twice as far, pound for . pound, as commercial grades of as bestos containing large amounts of other filler materials that have no specific desirable effects on tape joint compound pcopetries. Enhances Sondqbility CALIDRIA Asbestos contains mainly chtysotile fiber attd is essentially free from abrasive contaminants,such as magnetite and serpentine rock dust. This composition results in a low density product, free from con taminants that interfere with sanding. Improves Uniformity Narrow and well-conrrolled particle size distribution, low alkalinity and high brightness are characteristic of CALIDRIA Asbestos. These proper ties are consistent from batch to batch and improve the uniformity of tape joint compounds using CALIDRIA Asbestos. Reduces Crocking The fibers of CALIDRIA Asbestos behave as an active lyophobic colloid in aqueous dispersion; by this mecha nism CALIDRIA Asbestos increases tape joint compound liquid cohesive strength during drying. Increased liquid cohesive strength greatly re duces the tendency for cracks over nail holes, in thick sections at the center of the joint, and along the leathered edges. Suggestions for Use of CALIDRIA Asbestos CALIDRIA Asbestos can be readily used in your present tape joint compound formulation. Add approximately one-half the proportion of asbestos you now use. Increase the proportion of calcium carbon ate or other inert filler to make up for the lower quantity of asbestos. You may alsobe able to use slightly mote water in vout ready-mix and maintain your present vis cosity level.

In time, this condition became known as asbestosis and was related to exposure ro high concentrations of asbes to s dust. With further experience, it was found that men could work with asbestos without development of lung disease if dust concentrations were kept below a certain level. U is now generally accepted that a man can work a 40-hour week iot a lifetime without developing asb esto sis if the asbestos dust particle count is kept at ot below 5 million p articles per cubic foot of air.
