Seismic Fault Weakening Due To Thermal Pressurization of Comminution‐Induced Hydrophilic Talc

Abstract Talc is generally considered to be frictionally stable, yet the mechanochemical effect of extensive comminution along the fault gouge remains poorly understood. Here, we report that intact hydrophobic crystalline talc was mechanochemically changed into hydrophilic talc, by comminution using...
