Concrete, one of the most important building materials, has been in use for nearly two
hundred years and will likely continue to be the dominant building material for the …

Calcium-based biomaterials have been intensively studied in the field of drug delivery owing
to their excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability. Calcium-based materials can also …

Magnesium and sulfate are each known to affect calcite growth and dissolution, but little is
known about their combined effects on calcite growth rates. We grew calcite using the …

In the present work, the effect of temperature and solution pH on calcium carbonate
precipitation from iron‐rich waters was investigated. Calcium carbonate was precipitated by …

Too fast corrosion of magnesium (Mg)-based materials is one of main concerns prior to their
applications as biodegradable biomaterials. In present study, a CaCO 3 coating on Mg alloy …

Scaling on the heat exchanger surface resulted in large equipment cleaning, maintenance
expenses and safety issues in the industrial production. To remove the heat exchanger …

Aragonite formation and stabilization in seawater is still an area of active investigation since
the thermodynamically stable product at room temperature is calcite. In this manuscript …

Featured Application Coastal erosion is a natural process which poses serious problems to
coastal communities worldwide. Hard engineering solutions are the most common defense …

The present study aims to assess the performance of Tannic acid (TA), a natural polyphenol,
as a new eco-friendly inhibitor on the deposition scale of calcium carbonate. The …

The sulfur over calcium ratio (S/Ca) in foraminiferal shells was recently proposed as a new
and independent proxy for reconstructing marine inorganic carbon chemistry. This new …
