MECHANISMS OF SILICA FRACTURE IN AQUEOUS ELECTROLYTE SOLUTIONS

Mechanisms of Silica Fracture in Aqueous Electrolyte Solutions

Glassy silicates are substantially weaker when in contact with aqueous electrolyte solutions than in vacuum due to chemical interactions with preexisting cracks.To investigate this silicate weakening phenomenon, classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of silica fracture were performed using the bond-order based, reactive force field ReaxFF.Fo
