Uses of high grade limestone

Limestone has numerous uses: as a building material, as aggregate for the base of roads, as white pigment or filler in products such as toothpaste or paints, and as a chemical feedstock.
The following is about the various uses of high grade limestone powder and particle:

Steel
Limestone is used in making steel products. Limestone is added to mix with impurities in the melted iron, producing slag. The slag is separated from the iron leaving it clean of all impurities and limestone, which is then made into steel.

Plastic
Limestone is used in a wide range of plastic and elastomeric, or rubber, products. The regular and controlled shape of the limestone particles and size of these particles makes it a great filler material for the production of plastic and rubber. Fillers are used to expand expensive plastics or other materials to increase the product size without the cost. Since limestone is a non-reactive material, it is perfect for this application.

Construction
Limestone is used in virtually all construction materials. Limestone is added in with clay and heated to form cement, which can be made into mortar by adding sand and water. Mortar is used to set bricks and act as an adhesive when it dries. Limestone is also used in concrete and asphalt filler.

Neutralizer
Limestone can be added to water to remove impurities and pollutants. Since limestone is primarily made of calcium carbonate, a base substance, it can be used to neutralize acidity in industrial waste and run-off. Limestone can also be used to reduce soil acidity for agriculture.

Other
Limestone can be used in pigment-making and as filler for more expensive paints. Paper is also manufactured using limestone. Wood is treated with acid to help break it down, which is then treated with limestone to neutralize the acid and whiten paper. Limestone is also used in dyes and carpeting or other floor coverings, such as protective resins and coatings.
