Calcite-dissolving bacteria: promising approach as bio-fertilizer [PDF]
Calcium (Ca) is an essential macronutrient and a secondary messenger for the proper growth and functioning of plants. It is essential for membrane stability, cell integrity, cell division, and elongation.

Effects of temperature, pressure, and hydration on the microstructural characteristics and mechanical properties of calcite [PDF]
Geotechnical geological disasters occur frequently in China. Especially under complex environmental conditions, the failure mode of rock and the change mechanism of its mechanical properties are not clear.

Deep marine diagenesis, offshore Hawaii and Enewetak, with implications for older carbonates
Cenozoic limestones from Hawaii and Enewetak were studied to characterise diagenesis in deep sea water. Hawaii samples were from subsea outcrops of drowned Pleistocene reefs 150–1,505 m deep (maximum age 550–600 ka).

Growth of Calcite in Confinement [PDF]
Slow growth of calcite in confinement is abundant in Nature and man made materials. There is ample evidence that such confined growth may create forces that fracture solids. The thermodynamic limits are well known but since confined crystal growth is transport limited and difficult to control in experiment we have almost no information on the ...

PVC mixtures’ mechanical properties with the addition of modified calcite as filler [PDF]
In this study mechanical properties of PVC mixtures (PVC, stabilizer, lubricant, filler) such as tensile strength, tensile elongation, breaking strength, and breaking elongation were investigated.
