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 ...
