Fibrogenic effect of wollastonite compared with asbestos dust and dusts containing quartz.
The distribution of length and diameter and the aspect ratio of crocidolite asbestos, a mineral substitute for asbestos (wollastonite), a manmade mineral fibre (glass wool), and synthetic fibres (polypropylene and polyacrylonitrite) were determined by light microscopy with phase contrast and, for crocidolite, also with transmission electron microscopy. The synthetic organic fibres and manmade m...
متن کاملOn the statistical distribution of dust devil diameters
Dust devil diameters, like many features in nature, have skewed distributions. I summarize, and present in a unified manner, literature values of dust devil optical diameters from seven terrestrial surveys, three rover-based surveys on Mars and two orbital surveys on Mars. The problems of appropriately treating these data are analogous to those for impact craters, and similar display and binnin...
متن کاملSome pharmacological actions of cotton dust and other vegetable dusts.
Aqueous extracts of cotton and other vegetable dusts cause contraction of the isolated ileum and tracheal muscle of the guinea-pig, and of isolated human bronchial muscle. The levels of this contractor activity place the dusts of cotton, flax, and jute in the order of the probable incidence of byssinosis occurring in the mills spinning these fibres. Extracts of cotton dust possess a histamine-l...
متن کاملThe effect of stellar evolution on SiC dust grain sizes
Stars on the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) produce dust in their circumstellar shells. The nature of the dust-forming environment is influenced by the evolution of the stars, in terms of both chemistry and density, leading to an evolution in the nature of the dust that is produced. Carbon-rich AGB stars are known to produce silicon carbide (SiC). Furthermore, observations of the ∼11μm SiC featu...
متن کاملA simple electrodynamic model of a dust devil
[1] We present an electrodynamic model of a dust devil applying a similar methodology as performed previously for charging in terrestrial thunderstorms. While thunderstorm processes focus on inductive charging between large graupel and smaller ice and water droplets, we tailor the model to focus on the electric charge transfer between dust grains of different sizes and compositions. We specific...
