In order to truly simulate the influence of the underground high-temperature environment on limestone, taking seven groups of limestones of the Taiyuan Formation in the Ordos Basin as examples, we carried out a high-temperature (25\u20131200 \u00b0C) heating experiment of limestone in an argon atmosphere. The pore structure of limestone after the high temperature is studied based on scanning electron microscopy (SEM), mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), porosity, and permeability, and the change in the fractal dimension of the limestone pore structure was discussed based on the thermodynamic fractal theory, combined with X-ray diffraction (XRD) and thermogravimetry differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC), the variation of mineral composition with temperature is characterized, and the evolution mechanism of the limestone microstructure under high temperature is discussed. The results show that the evaporation of pore water does not destroy the lattice structure of limestone minerals; however, with the increase of temperature, the complete decomposition of dolomite and calcite occurs, along with the tensile fracture of calcite crystals under the effect of swelling stress. Moreover, the new minerals generated by the decomposition products under the effect of temperature severely damage the crystal structure, leading to the rapid increase of porosity and permeability. The comprehensive results show that the decomposition, expansion, and recrystallization of calcite and dolomite minerals after 800 \u00b0C led to the development of limestone macropores and fissures, increased the pore throat radius, enhanced the pore connectivity, simplified the pore structure, and sharply increased the permeability; thus, 800 \u00b0C can be used as the critical temperature to change the limestone pores and fractures. The research results can provide data support for subsurface high-temperature geotechnical engineering.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1021\/acsomega.3c07028","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,22]],"date-time":"2024-02-22T03:27:41Z","timestamp":1708572461000},"page":"10177-10189","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Pore Structure\nEvolution and Failure Mechanism of\nLimestone in the Taiyuan Formation of the Ordos Basin under High Temperature"],"prefix":"10.1021","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"Lingfeng","family":"Kong","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"China University of Petroleum (East China) , , , ,","place":["Qingdao, Shandong, P.
