Stonex

The goal of these experiments is to explore in which ways marble powder can be integrated into textile or create a new material that associated to textile will enhance its durability and resistance properties.

In this experiments, in addition to marble powder, have been used latex and caoutchouc. These two materials have mechanical properties that make the textile material more durable over time.

The combination between marble powder and latex/caoutchouc create a fllexible and elastic material but at the same time stronger and more resistant.

Many samples have been made in order to explore how different quantities influence the properties of the material.
