Otterbein CL80
£22.00 exc. VAT
White or creamy-white powders produced by the calcination of limestone or chalk in a kiln at a temperature of at least 900°C. Kiln temperatures are often significantly higher.
When slaked, quicklime formed from pure limestone produces non-hydraulic lime that will not set underwater. Certain siliceous and argillaceous limestones when calcined at relatively low temperatures, c.1000°C, produce lime with weak hydraulic properties, containing silicates, aluminates and other trace elements.
