Abstract

The authors appraise the test measurements of elastic modulus and micro-hardness of sylvite, halite and carnallite grains on NanoTest-600 unit, and analyze micromechanical properties of grain boundaries in silvite and halite. An approximate estimator formula for yield stress has been derived based on the micro-hardness test data.
