300 Cement (Johns-Manville)

300 Cement was a Johns-Manville cement.1 An insurance company's 1981 list of asbestos products, compiled from other companies' answers in lawsuits, lists it under Johns-Manville as a cement made from 1932 to 1970.1

A 1990 EPA notice that published what Manville reported gives figures only for a group of fifteen asbestos-binder cements: 0352, 300, 301, 302, 304, 319, 340, 352, 364, 400, 450, 500, 678, Superex and 85% Magnesia.2 For the group as a whole, it gives the years of production as 1930 to 1973, and the contents as asbestos, 10 to 100%, with diatomaceous earth, clay, portland cement and mineral wool each 0 to 30%.2 It describes the group's cements as off-white to grey in color, packaged in cans or pails.2
