Question: Why Is Limestone Used In Cement? - Ceramics
2020-2-20 The limestone acts as a seed crystal for the cement, better distributing the reaction products and increasing the reactivity of the cement. As there is always unhydrated cement in the concrete, this change will have no real measurable effect on the use of fly ash. What is the use of limestone in cement?

Fine limestone in cement - Understanding Cement
There still seems to be some confusion about whether fine limestone in cement (up to about 5% as permitted by eg: US and European standards) is an inert filler, or whether it is chemically reactive and contributes to the cement hydration products.

High limestone content in cement: An important step ...
For several decades limestone has been used in Germany with great success as a cement main constituent. The content of limestone has usually been up to around 15 mass % to contribute physically and chemically to the cement performance. The use of limestone is also the simplest and most efficient method to reduce the clinker content of cement.

Limestone Addition in Cement - Infoscience
Addition of fine limestone provides an excellent means to reduce the amount of clinker in cement. It is now well accepted that limestone partially reacts in cementitious systems with C3A to produce hemi- and monocarboaluminate phases and as a consequence more sulfate is available to form ettringite and the total volume of hydrates increases.

What Is the Difference Between Lime Cement?
Lime is produced from natural limestone by burning the stone in a kiln until only quicklime -- calcium oxide -- is left behind. The quicklime is then mixed with small amounts of water to create hydrated lime, which may be included in cement or mixed with water for use as mortar.

Concrete With Limestone Calcined Clay Cement
Cement is normally made from Limestone, Silica, Alumina and Gypsum, but when all these ingredients are mixed at a temperature of 1500o C, it causes an emission of CO2 on environment. To reduce this, the researchers found that the use of clinker should be reduced. And here the answer is Limestone Calcined clay cement.
