Hydrogen Peroxide on Marble Safety
On the safety of hydrogen peroxide used in marble
Marble has a warm texture and beautiful texture, and is often a good material for architectural decoration. However, when cleaning and maintaining it, the materials used need to be carefully considered. Among them, the safety of hydrogen peroxide used in marble is worth exploring.
Hydrogen peroxide has oxidation properties. In many cleaning scenarios, it is often used because it can decompose stains. However, when applied to marble, its consequences need to be carefully observed.
The main component of marble is mostly calcium carbonate. The oxidation of hydrogen peroxide, although it can decontaminate, may also react chemically with calcium carbonate. Once the reaction occurs, it may cause damage to the surface structure of the marble and reduce the luster.
There is empirical evidence that if a higher concentration of hydrogen peroxide is used for marble, fine potholes will gradually appear on the surface, and the color will not be as good as before. This is due to the loss of calcium carbonate caused by chemical reactions and the change of the microstructure of marble.
Furthermore, even if the lower concentration of hydrogen peroxide is used for a long time or frequently, it may cause cumulative damage to marble. It slowly erodes the surface of marble, and over time, it affects its appearance and durability.
Therefore, in order to ensure the integrity of marble, it is necessary to be cautious when using hydrogen peroxide. If not necessary, choose a cleaner specially designed for marble. If necessary, it is necessary to conduct a small-scale test in a hidden place to observe whether there are any adverse reactions, and strictly control the concentration and frequency of use in order to minimize the damage to the marble and maintain its long-term beauty.
