Hey, engineering lovers! In today's video, we'll dive deep into the world of asbestos, explaining what this material is and why its use is prohibited in Brazil and many other countries. Did you know that asbestos has been banned in Brazil since 1995, by LAW Nº 9.055, OF JUNE 1? Understand how this law impacts the extraction, production and commercialization of this fibrous mineral.
Asbestos, or asbestos, is known for its heat resistance, electrical insulation and chemical resistance properties, but it is also infamous for the serious health risks it poses. Discover the different types of asbestos - including chrysotile, amosite, crocidolite, tremolite, actinolite and anthophyllite - and their historical and industrial applications.
🔹 Why is asbestos so dangerous?
🔹 How to identify asbestos and where is it found?
🔹 What are the risks and diseases associated with asbestos exposure?
In this video, we discuss the history of asbestos use, from Ancient Egypt and Ancient Greece to the Industrial Revolution, and how it has been used in different cultures and eras. Learn more about the discovery of asbestos' harmful effects, the early scientific studies that linked its exposure to lung disease and cancer, and the regulations that emerged in the 1970s and 1980s.
We also explore recent cases, such as the aircraft carrier São Paulo, which was rejected by Turkey due to the presence of asbestos in its structure, demonstrating how this material continues to cause global concerns.
