message: The article says: “Stone wool is a furnace product of molten stone”.  That strikes me as bloody imprecise for an encyclopedia article.  There are thousands of substances that “stone” can refer to; most of them can be melted. Freederick 01:44, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: So, what is it?

message: I found an article about "synthetic mineral fibre", and I found it jenerally inferior to this article, so I sujested a merger. Considering it for a minute, I think I'll just boldly insert the redirection. I don't think many people care for safety assessments in the passive voice, which seems to be what "smf" is all about.

message: Isn't ceramic basically igneous and typically porous stone?
So, how do you compare them, as in rating ceramic above stone?

message: A new high temperature insulation wool article has appeared.  It's quite good, but both this article and it need work now to clarify their relationship. Ccrrccrr (talk) 11:12, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

message: The paragraph advising that ROCKWOOL is a registered trademark was badly written, and on researching the trademark status I found it was not a registered trademark in the United States. Further, an EU trademark was refused. See trademark distinctiveness for the probable reason: under U.S. trademark law, "rock wool" is merely a description of the product in English. In fact, the U.S. trademarks held by ROCKWOOL International (for example, HORTIFIBER ROCKWOOL®, US Trademark 3393071) have the disclaimer "No claim is made to the exclusive right to use ROCKWOOL apart from the mark as shown."

message: Will someone with expertise in this area please add a complete list of common names (along with any brand names) of products that are considered mineral wool, each accompanied by the specific elements they contain? Without this information the "Safety" section of this page is of zero use to laypersons. The Wikipedia pages of IARC's (International Agency for Research on Cancer) carcinogenicity categories include only the compounds used to create these types of fiber – the lists do not use the terms "mineral wool", "slag wool", "glass wool", "stone wool", etc. – Down time (talk) 16:11, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Edit request – More information required for Safety section  

message: It looks as if it was copy-pasted, maybe from a contract proposal, maybe from a technical paper.   In any case, it doesn't seem to add to the reader's information about rockwool/mineral wool.  Would anybody object if I remove it?
