Asbestos does not dissolve in water, it does not evaporate, it is resistant to heat, fire, chemical and biological degradation in any form, it is soundproof and it is a great binder. The word Asbestos itself is a translation of other words used by the ancient Greeks and Romans, who are believed to be the first people on earth to have ever used asbestos in clothing and construction purposes.
