New Fiberizer Demonstrates Workability of Asbestos
Sherbrooke inventor F. McKay reports on a fiberizing machine that processed 26 pounds of serpentine rock into 11 pounds of marketable asbestos. He notes a cyclone method yields purer fiber, while a mortar crush leaves rock particles attached. McKay explains the small machine limits and cites promising results from the sample sent by J H Bury of Casper Wyoming.
