| 1. | Brucite may also crystallise in cement and concrete in contact with seawater.
|
| 2. | It readily alters to brucite under near surface conditions.
|
| 3. | It occurs in nature as the mineral brucite.
|
| 4. | Hydrated metamorphic rock assemblages are dominated by the minerals chlorite, serpentine-antigorite, brucite.
|
| 5. | The result is a composite of brucite hydromagnesite and limestone with mechanical strength similar to concrete.
|
| 6. | It generally occurs associated with the weathering products of magnesium containing minerals such as serpentine or brucite.
|
| 7. | Gibbsite's structure is closely related to the structure of brucite, Mg ( OH ) 2.
|
| 8. | The different symmetry of gibbsite and brucite is due to the different way that the layers are stacked.
|
| 9. | Associated minerals include brucite, hydromagnesite, pyroaurite, chrysotile, aragonite, calcite, dolomite and magnesite.
|
| 10. | Because brucite is a swelling mineral, it causes a local volumetric expansion responsible for tensile stress in concrete.
