AN INVESTIGATION OF THE DELIQUESCENCE OF FERRICOPIAPITE AND THE ONSET OF DELIQUESCENCE OF EPSOMITE CRYSTAL FACES OF DIFFERING MILLER INDICES

Deliquescence is the process whereby a solid interacts with a humid atmosphere and begins to dissolve when the partial pressure of H2O in the atmosphere exceeds the partial pressure of H2O at which the solid is in equilibrium at a given temperature. Deliquescence of sulfate minerals poses a risk to...
