Physical Properties of Pantellerite

Physical properties of rocks are used to identify the type of rocks and to discover more about them. There are various physical properties of Pantellerite like Hardness, Grain Size, Fracture, Streak, Porosity, Luster, Strength etc which defines it. The physical properties of Pantellerite rock are vital in determining its Pantellerite Texture and Pantellerite Uses.

Hardness and Strength of Pantellerite

The physical properties of Pantellerite depend on its formation. Physical properties of rocks play an important role in determining its applications in various fields. Rocks are rated on the on the Moh's Hardness Scale which rates the rocks on the scale from 1 to 10. Rocks with hardness 1-3 are soft rocks from 3-6 are medium hardness rocks and 6-10 are hard rocks. The hardness of Pantellerite is 6-7 whereas its compressive strength is Not Available. Streak is the color of rock when it is crushed or powdered. The streak of Pantellerite is unknown whereas its fracture is sub-conchoidal. Luster of Pantellerite is the interaction of light with the surface of Pantellerite. Luster of Pantellerite is earthy. Pantellerite cleavage is conchoidal. The specific gravity of Pantellerite is Not Available. Pantellerite is translucent to opaque in nature whereas its toughness is 2. You can also know all the list of rocks in Opaque Rocks, Translucent Rocks and Transparent Rocks.
