Marble and its unique variety

In previous articles on Uranus Stone Industries, we explained the benefits and uses of marble. You may also want to know what variety marble has. Join us to discuss it further.

It can be said that marble is one of the most important building stones. Marble quarries are the most abundant building stone mines. Marble types are divided into other sub-categories based on the amount of magnesium carbonate. Here are some of these marble stones:

Calcite marble
Magnesium marble
Dolomite marble

All types of marble are similar in hardness. There are other types due to the presence of impurities in white, light, dark and colors such as red, brown, pink, cream, green, mustard and black. There are other examples of marbles that are similar to other marbles in terms of properties and method of formation, but in terms of hardness, they are closer to granite and porcelain

. These stones should be used filled because of the pores.In the past, ordinary concrete was used to fill these stones. The ingredients of this putty were Sim Sim and stone powder. But today, resin is used for this purpose. The back of some of these marble stones is covered with glue and resin or epoxy and glue to make it more stable.

Existing restrictions on marble

Marble is a relatively delicate stone that must be used very carefully. All of the following are some of the things that can damage this beautiful stone. Just like any other building material that has its own use, marble, if used in the right conditions and in the right place, will not be a problem and will give a great glory to the place.

The effect of weather conditions and natural factors on different types of marble

Apart from absorbing water, marbles can also suffer from severe weather conditions. Unlike other stones such as travertine, marble is weak against natural factors such as rain, cold, heat and weathering. If it is placed in places that are constantly exposed to expansion and contraction, it will gradually corrode. Another case is sunlight.

It is not very wise to use marble in the facade of a building, which also exposes it to constant sun exposure. In general, exposure to the sun and rain causes the marbles to fade over time. Therefore, it is recommended not to use marbles in places, especially the facade of the building. The use of marbles for the explicit is without problems. Because in the explicit production of high quality stone and its homogeneity is taken into account.

Marble resistance to abrasion

As mentioned, marble is less resistant than other stones. Therefore, using it in busy places is not a good option. If this stone is used in busy halls and stairs, it will wear out and sink over time. However, using weaker grades will speed up the wear process.

What is artificial marble?

Artificial stone is the result of combining real stones again with polymer chemicals and other additives such as cement. Artificial stone weighs less than natural stone. Weighing about half as much as real stone, it is easier to install than natural stone. Another important point about natural stone is the freedom of action of the producer.

This means that it can apply any design and color to the final product and give it different characteristics. The result is that for artificial stones, it is possible to simulate many natural stones.Marble is one of these stones, which is also made into an artificial specimen. In fact, it can be said that these stones are two popular stones for artificial simulation in Iran, along with granite.

As mentioned, by changing the properties of the produced stone, even better results can be obtained than natural stone. For example, in the case of marble, which has a higher water absorption than granite, the water absorption in the artificial sample can be reduced to zero. Also, in the artificial type, there is no limit to the production dimensions.
