Prediction of Structural-Chemical Change in Minerals under Mechanical Impact during Milling

摘要

There is sufficient experimental database thus far collected on structural and chemical changes in minerals with different types of chemical bonding under activation milling. The research has shown the possibility to predict specifics of grinding and defect formation in minerals with different types of chemical bonding. The article shows that type and number of defects formed on the surface of minerals govern important processing properties of the minerals such as capacities to be hydrated, dissolved, floated etc.
