Salt: The Rock That Flows
نویسندگان
چکیده
Salt is a substance with many uses, including as condiment for our food. also rock, and it can be found underground in places around the world. What makes rock salt fascinating that, over hundreds to millions of years, that flows! Over long periods time, behaves bit like honey—like thick, viscous liquid. This means change shape faster than other rocks squeezed surface toothpaste out tube. flow ice does glaciers. Understanding how changes important because often used store useful or dangerous substances, such petroleum nuclear waste.

Spinel–rock salt transformation in LiCoMnO4−δ
The transformation on heating LiCoMnO4, with a spinel structure, to LiCoMnO3, with a cation-disordered rock salt structure, accompanied by loss of 25% of the oxygen, has been followed using a combination of diffraction, microscopy and spectroscopy techniques. The transformation does not proceed by a topotactic mechanism, even though the spinel and rock salt phases have a similar, cubic close-pa...
متن کاملPresenting an experimental creep model for rock salt
During the recent decades, the design and construction of underground spaces into rock salt have been particularly regarded for storing petroleum fluids, natural gas, and compressed air energy, and also for disposing nuclear and chemical wastes. The rock salt hosting such spaces will be subjected to various types of monotonic/cyclic, short-term/long-term stresses during the construction and/or ...
متن کاملMaximum probability domains in crystals: the rock-salt structure.
The present paper studies MX crystals in rock-salt structure (M: Li, Na, K; X: F, Cl, Br, I). They are often described as being formed by ions. Pictures based on quantum mechanical calculations sustain and quantify it. The tools used are (i) the Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules, (ii) the Electron Localization Function, and (iii) the maximization of the probability to find in a spatial domai...
متن کاملThe Triple Salt Sr14[Ta4N13][TaN4]O-A Nitridotantalate Oxide with 19-fold Rock Salt Superstructure.
A new structure motif in nitridometalate chemistry is the tetracatena-nitridotantalate anion [Ta4N13]19-. It occurs in the crystal structure of the triple salt Sr14[Ta4N13][TaN4]O (monoclinic, space group P21/c with a = 15.062(2) Å, b = 7.2484(6) Å, c = 24.266(3) Å, and β = 97.280(10)o) together with ortho-tantalate and isolated oxide anions. Synthesis followed a new approach with employment of...
متن کاملSynthetic Rock Analogue for Permeability Studies of Rock Salt with Mudstone
Knowledge about the permeability of surrounding rock (salt rock and mudstone interlayer) is an important topic, which acts as a key parameter to characterize the tightness of gas storage. The goal of experiments that test the permeability of gas storage facilities in rock salt is to develop a synthetic analogue to use as a permeability model. To address the permeability of a mudstone/salt layer...
