Der Effekt von Spannungs- und Verformungsinduzierter Texturentwicklung und Korngrenzmobilität auf das Reaktionssaumwachstum im System MgO-SiO2 in Anwesenheit von Wasser
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
This experimental project addresses mineral reaction between calcite and magnesite under isostatic and non-isostatic stress conditions, forming dolomite and magnesio-calcite. Results of this project provide new quantitative insights into reaction kinetics within the carbonate system. From isostatic annealing experiments on natural single crystal starting materials we established a model for diffusion-controlled dolomite rim growth and determined the kinetic parameters. The presence of excess water has no effect on the measured growth rate. Remarkably and counterintuitive, growth is not achieved by simple cation exchange, but oxygen diffusion is obviously involved to maintain mass balance and charge neutrality. Under non-isostatic conditions, the dolomite reaction kinetics is not significantly influenced by deformation as suggested by the minor contribution of additional elastic and plastic strain energy to the total thermodynamic driving force. Also, deformation-induced textural changes of the newly formed minerals do not change the growth rates of dolomite. In contrast, application of differential stress slightly enhances the growth rate of magnesio-calcite by deformation-induced 2D and 3D structural defects. High strain torsion testing reveals a reduction of magnesio-calcite and dolomite reaction layer thickness with increasing strain (-rate), presumably caused by concurrent grain rotation and forced interface-parallel diffusion. Beside time and P,T conditions, the grain size of the reactant phases is the most important factor controlling the reaction kinetics between calcite and magnesite, indicating the need of polycrystalline educt phases to better constrain natural reaction kinetics from laboratory experiments. Diffusion along grain boundaries within the reactants determines the growth rate of dolomite and magnesio-calcite, resulting in enhanced product growth rate for small reactant grain size. Applied to natural carbonate systems, nonisostatic stress and deformation may enhance the reaction kinetics mainly by grain size reduction of the reactants, for example by cataclasis or dynamic recrystallization. Similar results are expected for silicate systems, which demands to be verified.
