This paper reviews the historic developments and provides some perspectives of carbonate
binders. Various carbonatable materials have been used to produce carbonate binders …

Among the polymorph modifications of calcium carbonate, the metastable vaterite is the
most practically important. Vaterite particles are applied in regenerative medicine, drug …

Calcium carbonate nano and micro-particles have a large number of industrial applications
due to their beneficial properties such as high porosity, high surface area to volume ratio …

Abstract Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) microspheres (μ-spheres) are widely used as
inorganic templates (or cores) for fabricating nanoengineered microcapsules. Deionized …

To develop materials for drug delivery and tissue engineering and to study their efficiency
with respect to ossification, it is necessary to apply physicochemical and biological analyses …

Recently, as a mimic of the natural biomineralization process, the use of carbonic anhydrase
(CA), which is an enzyme catalyzing fast reversible hydration of carbon dioxide to …

The effect of bacterial extracellular polymers (EPS) on calcium carbonate morphology and
polymorphism was investigated by means of free-drift mineralisation experiments …

The role of polymer in precipitation has been examined by studying the effect of poly
(ethylene glycol)(PEG) on the formation of calcium carbonate particles. Absence of polymer …

The development of novel cementation materials has attracted extensive interest due to the
limitation of traditional cementation materials on environment. This study proposed a …

Vaterite is an important biomedical material due to its properties such as high specific
surface area, high solubility, high dispersion, and small specific gravity. In this study …
