Silver Travertine Marble

Silver Travertine Marble is a high-quality and luxurious stone, perfect for adding elegance to any space. With its naturally occurring silver tones and unique veining patterns, this marble adds a touch of sophistication to any project. Its durability and timeless beauty make it a great investment for both residential and commercial use.

Professor Yuling Chen, deputy director of the Department of Inorganic Materials and Engineering, School of Materials Science and Engineering, Tongji University, believes: “silver travertine marble is formed naturally. Because of its natural formation, the existence of radioactivity is an undeniable fact. The radioactivity of silver travertine marble can generally be divided into external There are two types of radiation and internal radiation. External radiation is mainly due to the r-rays emitted by uranium, radium, thorium and other elements, which are more harmful to the human body; internal radiation is due to the attenuation of radium during the radiation process and becomes a gas called radon This gas is harmful to the human respiratory system and digestive system, but it must reach a certain concentration to be harmful. China has clear regulations on the radiation health protection of building materials, stipulating the limit value of external and internal exposure. The specified value is fully applicable to the mining, processing and use of natural silver travertine marble. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the protection and testing of silver travertine marble, especially for the mining and processing enterprises of silver travertine marble. As long as the silver travertine marble meets the national standard, it is not harmful to the human body. It hurts, so it’s not advisable to expand unprovoked."

Section Chief Lian went on to say: "The radioactive substances in silver travertine marble are mainly radon, but radon gas is heavier than air and generally sinks on the ground. If it is under ventilated conditions, the oxygen will be diluted and the oxygen concentration will not be sufficient. It is harmful to the human body; if the indoor ventilation conditions are poor, a person will have to stay indoors for up to half a year for 24 hours to be harmed. Once the person walks around, the radon gas will be dissolved. Therefore, the radioactivity of the stone is harmful to the human body. It is almost negligible. Besides, silver travertine marble is a kind of non-radioactive and can be called "green building material". It is the most ideal silver travertine marble for home decoration."
