Is this asbestos? Found it in the vicinity of previously missed asbestos.

Might be, might not be. You'd have to get it tested to know for sure. Doesn't matter really, unless you plan on keeping it around. Just trash it.

>previously missed asbestos
Well at least they tried asbestos they could

>>2937066
I’m concerned because i discovered it today when breaking out something.

>>2937064 (OP)
they stopped using asbestos in the early 80s, and that doesn't really that old, so probably not.

regardless asbestos is really not a big deal unless you're working construction and breathing in dust from handling it regularly. just throw it in the trash and forget about it.

Alright dude, thanks.

Breathe asbestos
Become fireproof

If you want to be perfectly goody two shoes your local dump/transfer station should have an asbestos drop off, it costs a little more but for something that small you're talking pennies
be more concerned that it got missed by the previous removal, probably worth poking around to check if they missed more
like other anon said the material is safe it's the dust that causes problems, wear a mask and avoid breaking or sanding it and you'll be fine

Think that is an acoustic panel made of particle board.

Why does ever nigga think asbestos is like plutonium and that it's fatal just being around it. Fucking retards.

>>2937518
because it can be dangerous
ops pic clearly shows a broken edge which will have released material.
asbestos never leaves your lungs once its in its in for good

nope chlorine dioxide removes it

Plutonium isn’t fatal just being around it. If anything, it’s a heavy metal risk like lead and bismuth. The radiological hazard is no more than the dirt outside.
