초록

티탄자철석(titanomagnetite)은 해양지각을 이루는 현무암에 존재하는 중요한 자성광물로서 일반적으로 저온산화에 의해 양이온이 결핍된(cation-deficient) 티탄맥히마이트(titanomaghemite)로 변한다. 실험실에서 철성분 제거방식(removal of iron mechanism)을 통해 자연에서 일어나는 티탄자철석의 수성 저온산화(low-temperature aqueous oxidation)를 재현하였으며, 산화정도에 따라 티탄맥히마이트의 자기적 특성이 민감하게 변화하는 것을 관찰하였다. 본 실험 결과 산화정도에 따라 티탄자철석의 큐리온도(Tc)는 166$^{\circ}C$에서 40$0^{\circ}C$로 증가하였고, 상온에서의 포화자화 강도(Ms)는 126.30 kA/m(25.26 emu/g)에서 16.55 kA/m(3.31 emu/g)로 감소하였으며, 항자기력(Hc)은 6.13 kA/m(77 Oe)에서 38.83 kA/m (488 Oe)로 잔류항자기력(Hcr)은 23.24 kA/m(292 Oe)에서 47.03 kA/m(591 Oe)로 증가함을 관찰하였다. 또한 대자율($\chi$)은 $2023{\times}10^{-6}SI$에서 $84{\times}10^{-6}SI$로 감소함을 나타내었다. 이와 같은 결과를 근거로 현재에서 30 Ma까지의 해양지각의 자화 강도의 변화는 티탄자철석의 저온산화에 의한 결과로 해석하였으며 30~120 Ma에 이르는 해양지각의 자화 강도의 변화는 해양지각에 포함된 티탄자철석의 산화와 산화에 순반되는 광물전에 의한 결과로 추정하였으며 보다 구체적인 원인은 해양지각에서 채취한 시료에 대한 체계적인 연구를 통해서 밝혀질 것으로 기대된다.

Titanomagnetites, the primary magnetic mineral in submarine basalts, generally has undergone some degree of low temperature oxidation to cation-deficient titanomaghemites. Synthetic analogues of natural titanomaghemite have been prepared by the removal of iron mechanism employing a low-temperature aqueous oxidation method. Along with the low-temperature oxidation of titanomagnetite, magnetic properties of titanomagnetite change sensitively. The results show that as the degree of oxidation increases, the Curie temperature (Tc) increases from $166^{\circ}C$ to $400^{\circ}C$, saturation magnetization (Ms) at room temperature decreases from 126.30 kAlm (25.26 emu/g) to 16.55 kAlrn (3.31 emu/g) monotonously, and coercive force (Hc) and coercivity of remanence (Hcr) increase from 6.13 kAlm (77 Oe) and 23.24 kAlm (292 Oe) to 38.83 kNm (488 Oe) and 47.03 kAlm (591 Oe), respectively. Low field susceptibility (X) decreases from $2023{\times}10^{-6}SI$ to $84{\times}10^{-6}S1$. Based on the results of this study, it is interpreted that the NRM intensity variations of the oceanic crust of presetnt day to 30 Ma is due to the formation of titanomahemites of various degree of oxidation by the low-temperature aqueous oxidation of titanomagnetite, while the magnetic intensity changes of the oceanic crust older than 30 Ma is presumably caused by the combined effect of the formation of titanomaghemites and subsequent inversion of titanomagnemites. DetaileJ causes of the variations of NRM intensity of the oceanic crust may be revealed by systematic studies of the oceanic-floor basalts in the future.
