Contains Johns-Manville Library impress. One of the things that makes this book interesting (and probably unique) is that there is an impress to a couple of pages that reads "Johns-Manville Research Laboratory Library." This appears to indicate that this book was in their library.  Please see pictures of the impress above. 

CONDITION: Owner's impress to several pages.  Card pocket & price written to back endpaper. A few other typical library markings. Otherwise, very good condition.

ASBESTOS References: 
This book contains text and tables listing when asbestos is recommended. There are a couple of paragraphs on asbestos in the "Joints, Gaskets, and Static Seals" chapter.  The "Compression Packings" chapter has 7 pages that mention asbestos.  This includes a 2-page table entitled "Typical Packing Types and Applications."  There is also a table entitled "Material Selection by Duty" which lists asbestos for oil, petrochemical, refrigerants, acid solutions, chemical solutions, and soft general purpose jointing for applications with low bolt loads.  In a paragraph about Acids and Alkalis, both Blue and White asbestos is recommended (see below picture for exact wording).  There is also an advertisement for Kempchen & Co gmbh which mentions asbestos.
