Is Limestone Expensive?
In architecture, limestone is considered a high-end and classic material for exterior walls. However, many people still have questions about limestone. Below, Huazhi Stone answers some common questions about limestone.
1. What is Limestone?
Limestone is primarily composed of calcium carbonate, with a concentration of over 90%. It also contains small amounts of impurities like iron oxide and manganese oxide. Occasionally, it may include dolomite, clay, silica, sulfides, and other organic substances. These impurities give limestone its diverse range of colors, including white, yellow, and gray.
2. Is Limestone Suitable for Exterior Walls?
Absolutely! Limestone is a sedimentary rock composed of carbonate debris that has not undergone high-temperature or high-pressure metamorphism. Its formation process typically involves biological remains being compacted and cemented over time. As a result, limestone has a relatively soft texture (compared to marble), high plasticity, and resistance to high temperatures. It can withstand direct sunlight without cracking, absorb environmental noise, and is a "breathable" stone—perfect for exterior walls
