Crack remediation in mortar via biomineralization: effects of chemical admixtures on biogenic calcium carbonate
(Elsevier, 2018-11-30)
Limited research on biomineralization in cement-based systems suggested that self-healing of surface cracks could be obtained by triggering biogenic calcium carbonate (CaCO3) precipitation within the cracks. While this is ...
Use of biomineralisation in developing smart concrete inspired by nature
(Inderscience, 2015)
Recently, interest has focused on leveraging the biological functions of microorganisms to develop smart cement-based materials. This paper provides an overview of the calcium carbonate biomineralisation process in nature ...
