- Title
Weathering of granitic rocks by chlorides: effect of the nature of the solution on weathering morphology .

Rivas, T.; Prieto, B.; Silva, B.; Birginie, J.M.
- Abstract
Focuses on five granites from NW Spain were subjected to two salt-spray weathering tests under controlled atmospheric conditions. How granite samples were exposed to a sodium chloride solution in the first test and to a complex solution in the second; Examinations which used light and petrographic microscopy clearly demonstrated the development of different weathering morphologies in each test.
