Carbonate rocks have a widespread diffusion in the Earth crust and are extensively used in cultural heritage and buildings. These rocks can be naturally or anthropically exposed to high temperatures. Consequently, relating physical properties to temperature-induced damage is extremely important. Six sets of compositionally and texturally different carbonate rocks, spanning from limestones and marbles to dolomitic marbles, were analysed in this study. Different physical properties, such as porosity, seismic wave velocities and electrical resistivity, were measured before and after thermal treatments with heating/cooling ranges between 105 and 600°C. Microstructural observations and optical analyses were used to investigate how temperature-induced damage affects the physical measured properties of the different microstructures. This integrated approach allowed to define a generalised relationship between physical properties and thermal-induced damage, by way of an induced damage index valid for a broad suite of carbonate rocks.

将物理性质与温度引起的碳酸盐岩破坏相关

碳酸盐岩在地壳中广泛分布，并广泛用于文化遗产和建筑中。这些岩石可以自然或人为地暴露于高温下。因此，将物理性质与温度引起的损害联系起来非常重要。本研究分析了六组成分和质地不同的碳酸盐岩，范围从石灰石和大理石到白云岩大理石。在热处理前后，在105至600°C的温度范围内，测量了不同的物理性质，例如孔隙率，地震波速度和电阻率。使用显微结构观察和光学分析来研究温度引起的损伤如何影响不同显微结构的物理测量性能。
