No, it isn't. Asbestos thermal insulation materials and glass wool insulation materials are two completely different products.The main function of asbestos products is heat insulation. General products are of it are asbestos cloth, asbestos ropes,asbestos packing, asbestos thermal insulation plates, asbestos velvet, sepiolite, asbestos mats, asbestos quilt,asbestos rubber sheet, PTFE products,metal spiral wound gasket, asbestos paper and asbestos lines added with steel wire.Amomg these, asbestos thermal insulation board can be thermal insulating. The main function of glass wool products is heat perservation. It has a certain heat resistance, but is not as good as asbestos thermal insulation material.Glass wool products are glass wool board, pipe and mat.
Asbestos products have many varieties and they are mainly used for thermal insulation in industrial equipment and industrial pipes. The operating temperature is within 600 ℃. Compared with glass wool, asbestos products also have more forms. They include asbestos cloth, rope, tape, sheet, blanket, packing (sealing materials), quilt (for fire suppression) and paper.Glass wool is mainly used for thermal insulation of buildings and air ducts. The operating temperature is within 450 ℃.The main products areglass wool plates and carpets.It need to be noted that asbestos is non-environmentally friendly materials and it is radioactive. Long-term contact with it may do great harm to the human body, thus the production of it is banned.
