“…Although this phenomenon is well known [44][45][46], we have added here accurate results on the microstructure of the heated fibers. The heat treatment of amorphous alumino-silicate ceramic fibers was found to result in the formation of mullite, ␣-cristobalite and a second form of cristobalite called ␣ -cristobalite (not observed here) [45,46]. The chemical composition of the original glass phase is nearly 1:1 SiO 2 :Al 2 O 3 and in principle should lead to the formation of stoichiometric (Al 2 SiO 5 ) mullite.…”

“…Contudo, vários estudos demonstraram que os materiais FCR e AES quando expostos a determinadas temperaturas e tempos, sofrem o processo de recristalização, sendo que uma das fases formadas é a sílica cristalina, conhecida como cristobalita [5,[12][13][14][15][16]50]. De acordo com a IARC há evidências suficientes em humanos da patogenicidade da sílica cristalina inalada, nas formas de quartzo ou cristobalita [17].…”

“…Para as fibras AES, nenhuma evidência patológica em animais foi comprovada, considerando experimentos com as fibras in natura, ou seja, conforme recebidas [8][9][10]. Contudo, ao expor estes materiais a determinados tempos e temperaturas, modificações em suas microestrutura e morfologia são identificadas, podendo ocasionar a formação da fase cristobalita [11][12][13][14][15][16]. Esta fase polimórfica da sílica cristalina apresenta uma preocupação em potencial, uma vez que há evidências comprovadas do seu risco ocupacional em animais (estudos experimentais em ratos) e na espécie humana [17].…”

“…However calcined diatomite is dustier than the parent material, which must be a contributory factor for exposure. The crystalline silica produced during the firing of aluminosilicate products, although commonly called cristobalite, is another form of silica that has been described as ß-cristobalite [6], or · 1 -cristobalite [5]. This isomorph is normally unstable at room temperature but may be stabilised by the incorporation of some aluminium atoms into the crystal structure.…”
