Analysis of strength property and pore characteristics of Taihang limestone using X-ray computed tomography at high temperatures
Abstract Rising temperature will cause the changes of pore characteristics and strength property in rock. This research takes the limestone produced in Taihang Mountains as the research object, and performs high-temperature treatment within 25–1000 °C. The high-resolution X-ray computed tomography (...

| Sumario: | Abstract Rising temperature will cause the changes of pore characteristics and strength property in rock. This research takes the limestone produced in Taihang Mountains as the research object, and performs high-temperature treatment within 25–1000 °C. The high-resolution X-ray computed tomography (CT) scanning test method is used to visually reconstruct the three-dimensional image of the sample, and obtain the spatial distribution status of the mesoscopic parameters of the bones, pores/cracks, etc. The results show that when the temperature exceeded 700 °C, the samples appeared milky white in appearance and as the temperature increased, the color gradually turned white, macroscopic cracks began to appear on the surface, while the meso-pores connected rapidly, reflecting a typical progressive destruction process from inside to outside. The change law of volume porosity with temperature has a consistent trend with that of the apparent morphology of the sample. Similarly, the mechanical test results suggest that 700 °C is also the turning temperature for strength deterioration and brittle-plastic transformation of sample. Based on the results of high-temperature test, CT test and mechanical test, there are enough evidences to show that, for the limestone sample, 700 °C is probably to be the mutation temperature of physical–mechanical behavior. |
