Alkali-Activated Metakaolins: Mineral Chemistry and Quantitative Mineral Composition [PDF]
The reaction products resulting from the alkali-activation of metakaolin are impacted by the composition of the initial kaolin, and amount of alkali-activated kaolinite and water. The present study focused on analyzing these parameters on the metakaolins

Dentin structure composition and mineralization [PDF]
We review firstly the specificities of the different types of dentin present in mammalian teeth. The outer layers include the mantle dentin, the Tomes' granular and the hyaline Hopewell-Smith's layers. Circumpulpal dentin forming the bulk of the tooth, comprises intertubular and peritubular dentin.
