Asbestos when added to materials may provide strength, heat insulation, or fire resistance, among other properties.
For example:
cotton fabrics and asbestos
This segment of engineering covers a broad spectrum of chemistry, physics and electrical engineering issues.
MSE is a field of Engineering - MSE stands for Materials Science and Engineering. The field encompasses the spectrum of materials: metals, ceramics, polymers (plastics), semiconductors, and combinations of materials called composites.Materials Science and Engineering is concerned with the relation between the structure and properties of materials, factors which control the internal structure, and processes for altering the structure and properties. It brings together in a unified discipline the developments in physical metallurgy, ceramics, and the physics and chemistry of solids.For more details click the links on the left.
is ther a demand for material engineering in the future
asbestos
the main difference is of SPELLINGS!. material science is knowing the basic knowledge about materials i.e their properties. and material engineering is that, by knowing the properties of a particular material you design or engineer that material for desired applications.
In US regulations asbestos-containing material is a material that has more than one percent (1 %) asbestos by weight.
the material usually classified based on their properties.
Asbestos is a porous material and can absorb water.
An asbestos square is a square of a material that contains asbestos in it.
Asbestos (particularly blue asbestos)
Asbestos cement
Asbestos is not bacteria. It is a fibrous mineral that has been used for ages in everything from construction to clothing. It was once considered a great building material because of its heat resistant properties among other things. Asbestos affects the human body when the fibers are inhaled, generally causing cancer.
Friable asbestos is material that contains asbestos fibers and that can be crumbled into dust in the hand without the use of tools.
An asbestos-containing material is one that has a detectable percentage of asbestos fibres, which is usually more than 0,1 %.
Examples: steels, concrete, cables, conducts, wood, bitum etc.
