Wear Behavior of Aluminium Metal Matrix Composite Prepared from Industrial Waste by L. Francis Xavier, Paramasivam Suresh

“…In this work, Aluminium Metal Matrix Composite is prepared by reinforcing 10 wt% and 20 wt% of wet grinder stone dust particles an industrial waste obtained during processing of quarry rocks which are available in nature. In the composite materials design wear is a very important criterion requiring consideration which ensures the materials reliability in applications where they come in contact with the environment and other surfaces. …”

Trouble in Anatolia by Nick R Anthonisen

“…Not only that, but some areas of Anatolia are rich in erionite, and people build homes in and on erionite-bearing rocks. Erionite is apparently something like asbestos but worse in terms of carcinogenicity (1), perhaps because its crystals have large surface areas, and areas with erionite have an even higher incidence of mesothelioma.…”
