Can asbestos rock be woven?

Yes, if asbestos rock is milled to separate it into fibers, those fibers can be woven pretty much the way cotton or linen can be woven. This used to be the way asbestos was used in electrical insulation, fire blankets, theatrical fire curtains, and a variety of other products. Because of the adverse health effects associated with breathing asbestos dust, these products are no longer made from asbestos.


What does asbestos look like?

Asbestos is a fiberous mineral. It is hard to describe its appearance but white asbestos has a look similar to cotton wool, whereas brown and blue asbestos look similar to crushed timber but on a much much smaller scale. It is not possible to look at a manufactureed product with the naked eye and determine whether it contains asbestos. An experienced minerologist might be able to identify raw, unprocessed asbestos by sight, but where exposure and health is a concern, lab analysis should be relied upon.


Do the gp7 gas masks contain asbestos?

No. No gas masks contain asbestos. The filters do. While some, very early filters do, the filters which come with GP-7s don't. If you have a filter with ГП-5 on it, then you do not need to worry about asbestos. What is problematic is that they contain activated charcoal, which CAN be harmful if the cotton seals on the filter were to break.
