The most common asbestiform mineral is chrysotile, commonly called "white asbestos", a magnesium phyllosilicate part of the serpentine group. Other asbestiform minerals include riebeckite , an amphibole whose fibrous form is known as crocidolite or "blue asbestos", and brown asbestos , a cummingtonite-grunerite solid solution series.
The diameter of the fibre bundles is 0.1–1 μm, and the individual fibrils are even finer, 0.02–0.03 μm, each fibre bundle containing tens or hundreds of fibrils. [7] Chrysotile fibres have considerable tensile strength, and may be spun into thread and woven into cloth. They are also resistant to heat and are excellent thermal, electrical ...
