Abstract

Abstract : The study on microscopic mechanical properties of mineral is of great significance to reveal the damage mechanism of rock and can provide important basis for nondestructive testing of building materials and assisted rock breaking technology. As the main test method for rock and mineral microscopic mechanical properties, nanoindentation test has several parameters such as loading time, indentation depth, and loading rate, which have great influence on the test results. Three schemes are designed as follows: (1) The loading and unloading rates remain unchanged, and the holding time is 0 s, 5 s, 10 s, 20 s, 50 s, and 100 s, respectively. (2) Ten cycles of loading and unloading tests are used to calculate micromechanical indexes at different indentation depth. (3) The maximum load and holding time remain unchanged, and the loading rate is 5 mN/s, 10 mN/s, 20 mN/s, 30 mN/s, 40 mN/s, and 50 mN/s, respectively. The results show that (1) with the increase of holding time, the elastic modulus and hardness of feldspar decrease sharply between 0 s and 5 s, decrease slightly between 5 s and 10 s, and stabilize after 10 s. The creep displacement of feldspar is positively correlated with holding time. The holding time does not change the development path of creep displacement. (2) With the increase of indentation depth, the elastic modulus and hardness of feldspar decrease gradually and become stable when the indentation depth is more than 350 nm. (3) The elastic modulus and hardness of quartz increase with loading rate. The maximum indentation depth and residual indentation depth decrease with the increase of loading rate. The creep displacement increases with loading rate, while the creep compliance decreases with the increase of loading rate. With the increase of holding time, the creep rate decreases and tends to be stable. The results provide theoretical basis for obtaining more accurate rock nanoindentation mechanical properties and revealing rock damage mechanism.
