Before the 1980’s, asbestos was a very desirable component in many construction materials as it has many aspects that are desirable in a building material. Its strength means it’s a good material to reinforce things like plastic and cement. Asbestos has great fire resistance which makes it ideal for things like heating tanks, which are always exposed to high temperatures. However, research shows that asbestos brings more harm than good, as it can cause huge health problems if the fibres that make up asbestos are inhaled. The problem with this is when asbestos is disturbed by physical force or by natural degrading of the material; the fibres that make up the substance are released into the air. Because the particles are so small, it can be easily inhaled which causes major health issues through your respiratory system, which can cause cancer of the lungs and many other associated issues that are life-threatening.
