Fracture, grinding, mechanical activation and synthesis processes in solids under mechanical action

The parameters of mechanical action on solids were determined for apatite and quartz as examples, providing separation between fracture, grinding and mechanical activation processes in solids. The texture, structural and chemical changes accompanying these processes in the samples under investigation are shown. The data on mechanochemical synthesis of isomorphous apatite modifications in multicomponent systems are reported. A reversible character of mechanochemical activation and mechanochemical synthesis is discovered.
