Volume 70 January 1977 irregular or nodular interstitial opacities of limited extent and intensity on their films Silica or asbestos exposure had occurred in 22 of the work force examined Such exposures had occur- red in various job categories in the titanium facility as well as in prior occupations Eight of the 26 workers with abnormal rays had had silica or asbestos exposure No clear pattern of restrictive disease in relation to ray findings could be seen Summary and Conclusions Clinically significant or symptomatic pulmonary disease was infrequent in a survey of 207 currently employed production workers in a plant producing titanium dioxide from ilmenite ore Evidence of airways obstruction was found in 47 of all workers including 38 % of workers who had never smoked regularly This abnormality was not frequently accompanied by disabling shortness of breath Despite the fact that approximately 90 of the group of workers examined had worked for 20 years or more radiological changes consistent with pneumoconiosis were relatively few and unrelated to the respiratory abnormalities observed We conclude with the caveats inherent in a prevalence study in which only half of the eligible long workers were examined that occupational exposure associated with titanium production by the sulphate process may commonly cause undesirable irritation of the upper and lower respiratory tract and functional abnormalities of the lung but does not result in an important incidence of serious occupational lung disease Individual workers may however suffer unwanted abnormalities These findings of course do not speak to the presence or absence of increased risk of malignant pulmonary disease This is being separately studied Acknowledgment This research study was

Klimentidis BA MS Wolff PhD and I J Selikoff MD Environmental Sciences Laboratory Mount Sinai School of Medicine of the City University of New York New York NY 10029 Asbestos in Brake Linings The composition of automotive brake linings includes chrysotile asbestos fibre which comprises about % of the friction material The exposure of garage workers to asbestos during brake lining maintenance and repair has recently been investigated Rohl et al 1976 This important issue was studied because a large labour force is potentially exposed over one million people in the United States alone Consequently it was thought essential to determine if chrysotile fibre survives braking and to measure the amounts liberated as an aerosol during maintenance and repair oper- ations _ Investigators in the past have expressed doubt as to whether chrysotile fibres can survive the high temperatures generated during braking Lynch 1968 Hickish & Knight 1970 Hatch 1970 Chrysotile is alleged to be subjected to temperatures in excess of 800 which would cause its thermal transformation to forsterite or to an amorphous magnesium silicate phase While hot spots up to 1000 may be attained Carroll 1962 the heat distribution is nonuniform and other processes in addition to thermal wear contribute to de- gradation of brake linings For example abrasion and macroshear may cause physical breakdown Burwell 1957 Mizutani et al 1973 Accordingly brake lining disintegration by these mechanisms may liberate partially altered or even unaltered chrysotile fibres REFERENCE Miller A Chuang M & SelikoffI J 1976 American Review of Respiratory Diseases 113 Suppl p 89 abstract Analysis of Brake Drum Dust Initially ten samples of automobile brake drum dusts from brake repair shops in New York City . were collected and examined by optical microscopy ray diffraction transmission electron mic- roscopy and energy dispersive ray spectroscopy to determine the presence of chrysotile Optical microscopy The detection of chrysotile in brake drum dust by optical microscopy is hindered by the nature of the debris matrix consisting largely of opaque pyrolyzed phenolic resin binders and road dust Chrysotile particularly small fibres has low optical relief and low birefringence which further hinder its identification Only in rare instances have large fibres with optical Section of Occupational Medicine 33
