Letter from Union Carbide's Eastern Region sales and technical service manager to PPG Industries' environmental control manager, following a telephone call the day before. It enclosed a National Research Council report, "Airborne Asbestos", and discussed asbestosis, cancer and mesothelioma, and the recommended use of ventilation or dust masks by customers. It also noted that PPG's decision to use CALIDRIA RG-244 in polyester products might be negated by the potential health hazards.
