Kieserite (MgSO4 - 2H2O)
Key Words: Kieserite (MgSO4 - 2H2O)
Material Notes: Critical relative humidity for stability is 65%. Four cleavage directions. Weathering end product(s): Slow solution. Occurrence: Evaporates; desert floor; in stone. Common in efflorescence. Crystallization Pressure for C/CS = 2 is 272 atm at 0°C. Crystallization Pressure for C/CS = 2 is 324 atm at 50°C. Crystallization Pressure for C/CS = 10 is 910 atm at 0°C. Crystallization Pressure for C/CS = 10 is 1079 atm at 50°C.Crystallization Pressure for C/CS = 50 is 1543 atm at 0°C. Crystallization Pressure for C/CS = 50 is 1840 atm at 50°C. Property values are typical of naturally occurring Kieserite (MgSO4 - 2H2O). Actual property values will vary from sample to sample.
