Nanomechanical Characterization of the Carbonated Wollastonite System
This paper focuses on the nano-mechanical characterization of carbonated calcium silicate mineral (wollastonite (CaSiO3)) using nanoindentation technique. While exposed to carbon dioxide (CO2), the calcium component of wollastonite undergoes carbonation reaction which results in formation of two main products: calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and silica (SiO2). The mechanical properties of these partially reacted wollastonite systems were evaluated using the nanoindentation technique from which the reduced elastic modulus (Er) of silicate phase found to be around 38 GPa. For calcium carbonate phase this value was around 60 GPa.
