1. Introduction of limestone
Limestone is one kind of rock, with calcium carbonate as its main component, and its chemical formula is CaCO₃. Limestone is composed primarily of calcite, with little amount of доломит, clay mineral, and detrital mineral. Limestone has low hardness and it will foam violently when reacting with dilute hydrochloric acid. The formation of limestone is related to the remains of marine life, and it is formed through long-term geological changes. Limestone is a common sedimentary rock, and it is widely used as industrial material and construction material, etc.
2. The reasons why limestone can improve the comfort of buildings
2.1. High thermal conductivity and heat capacity
High thermal conductivity and heat capacity mean that limestone can not only absorb and store heat, but also release heat at a lower speed . This feature helps reduce temperature fluctuation during the day and night, and bring more comfortable living environment.
2.2. High porosity and mesoporosity
High porosity and mesoporosity can absorb moisture in the air and then regulate temperature and humidity. For buildings in basement and humid environment, the regulating effect of limestone is particularly important. It can prevent buildings from being damp and moldy. So, high porosity and mesoporosity of limestone is helpful for dry and comfort of buildings.
3. Summary
Due to above features, limestone performs well in improving building comfort. In addition to construction field, limestone is also widely used in fields of environmental protection and agriculture, etc. In order to improve application efficiency and effect, limestone is usually needed to be crushed and classified. The ball mill and air classifier produced by Qingdao Epic Powder Machinery Co., Ltd. are suitable for grinding and classifying limestone. They both perform well whether used alone or in combination.
