Quantitative analysis of saline transport and crystallization damage in porous limestone visualized by neutron and X-ray imaging Ghent University
This article presents coupled data on saline transport, pore filling due to salt crystallization and resulting salt damage in Savonnières limestone. This is achieved by combining the non-destructive techniques of neutron radiography - for transport imaging - and X-ray microtomography - for pore structure and fracture visualization U+2013 applied to the same sample when subjecting it to consecutive wetting-drying cycles. Capillary uptake of ...
