A Modern Roman‐Inspired Concrete with Daytime Radiative Cooling Capacity
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Coolcrete, inspired by ancient Roman concrete, is a new cementitious material with photonic properties enabling passive daytime radiative cooling. Made from quicklime and zeolites, it reduces cooling energy demand, lowers CO2 emissions, and may eliminate urban heat islands.

Organic chemical signatures of New Zealand carbonate concretions and calcite fracture fills as potential fluid migration indicators [PDF]
, 2006 Macroscopic calcite crystals are common in sedimenta¬ry strata, occurring both as tectonic veins and also filling one or more generations of septarian rupture or later brittle fractures in calcareous concretions.

Effect of ball milling in a tumbling ball mill on the properties of multi-wall carbon nanotubes [PDF]
, 2008 The effects of ball milling on various properties of ground multi-wall carbon nanotubes were studied. These properties were granulometry, SEM,specific surface area, density, crystalline structure, surface chemical analysis and thermogravimetry.

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract The rapid depletion of high‐grade fluorite deposits has made the purification of fluorite from low‐grade ores increasingly critical. Traditional carboxylate surfactants face significant challenges in fluorite/calcite separation due to their similar affinity for both minerals.

Selective Flotation of Calcite from Fluorite: A Novel Reagent Schedule
, 2016 Fluorite is an important strategic mineral. In general, fluorite ores will contain a certain amount of calcite gangue mineral. Thus, they need to be separated from each other.

Optimizing electron backscatter diffraction of carbonate biominerals—resin type and carbon coating [PDF]
, 2009 Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) is becoming a widely used technique to determine crystallographic orientation in biogenic carbonates. Despite this use, there is little information available on preparation for the analysis of biogenic carbonates ...
