Excerpt (report pages 6-7 plus tables and graphs) of an industrial hygiene survey of dust released when insulation blocks sold as Thermobestos, Kaylo and Carey-Temp were cut on two band saws, measured in mppcf in early 1963. It gives conclusions on ventilation, tables of dust concentrations, free silica and duct velocities, and recommends not fabricating Carey-Temp or Thermobestos blocks unless dust is held below 20 mppcf.
