Internal Linde memo dated April 7, 1987, on vermiculite used as cold box insulation, which W. R. Grace had said from its Libby, Montana mine may contain asbestos fibers. It reports that NATLSCO tested 39 batch samples and detected no asbestos, and recommends revising the purchase specification to require asbestos-free certification, avoiding Grace's Libby source, and continuing normal handling precautions without further testing.
