ASBESTOS DECOMPOSING AGENT AND PROCESS FOR DECOMPOSITION OF ASBESTOS

摘要

The invention aims at decomposing fibrous asbestos into massive one. In the invention, an asbestos decomposing agent is used, which contains as the main component an aqueous solution of a polysulfide prepared by ionic bonding of an alkali metal substance with sulfur. The invention also provides a process for decomposition of asbestos by coating or impregnating an asbestos-containing material to be treated with an asbestos decomposing agent containing as the main component an aqueous solution of a polysulfide prepared by ionic bonding of an alkali metal substance with sulfur to decompose the asbestos contained in the material.
