    Asbestos has some pretty insane properties, though. Just a shame it causes cancer when disturbed and inhaled.

    As a building material? What’s even better than asbestos in terms of the trifecta of sound/heat isolation, bulk, melting point, and structural soundness? Aerogel?

      Not just that but internal insulation and fireguarding has come a long way.
