What is Factors Affecting Lime Slaking Rates about?

This study examined how various chemical constituents affect the rate of lime slaking. It found that chloride ions in slaking water increased the reaction rate of lime, while sulfate and carbonate ions decreased it. Magnesium oxide, a common impurity in limestone, also slowed the hydration rate when present in calcined lime. The researchers quantified these effects to help lime producers and consumers understand how to optimize lime quality and use.
