Asbestos Chalkboard Sample

Close-up view showing an example of asbestos chalkboard material. Essentially ¼" asbestos cement (or "Transite") panel with a hard, colored coating, in this case depicting common flat green.

 

Image shows chrysotile asbestos fiber bundles protruding from fractured edges of cement material.

 

Other more common, non-asbestos chalkboard materials may consist of dark grey/black slate or metal-clad gypsum-board.
