Research on damage and degradation of coal-bearing sandstone under freeze-thaw cycles by Yiwen Mao, Ming Li, Peng Wu, Shuai Guo, Fuqiang Zhu

“…The CT scan results show that with the decrease of the freezing temperature and the increase of the number of freeze-thaw cycles, the number and geometric size of pores on the sample cross section increase significantly. Additionally, the evolution equation of freeze-thaw damage factors was established with freezing temperature and number of freeze-thaw cycles as parameters, and the internal mechanism and physical characterization of freeze-thaw damage degradation of coal measure sandstone were revealed. …”
