XXX Millboard was an asbestos millboard made by Johns-Manville, sold in sheets.1,2 An insurance company's 1981 list of asbestos products, compiled from other companies' answers in lawsuits, lists it under Johns-Manville as a sheet product made from 1918 to 1981; 1981 is the list's own year, so that end date may mean it was still being made.1
A 1990 EPA notice that published what Manville reported lists XXX in a group of asbestos millboards, with C, 101 through 106, 219 and Type A, produced from 1878 to 1980.2 For the group as a whole, it gives asbestos fibers, 65 to 75%, with clay and lime, 15 to 25%; starch, 2 to 8%; and sodium silicate, 2 to 5%.2 It describes the millboards as sheets or board furnished in thicknesses from 1/32" to ½".2 These are group figures, not figures for XXX alone.2
