Abstract

The role of organic ligands on the formation of hydrated magnesium carbonates (HMCs) has been remaining unclear. This work reports insights into the effects of Mg-acetate on the carbonation of brucite including the kinetics of reaction, the precipitation of different HMCs, and reaction mechanisms. We found that the organic ligand increases the kinetics of brucite's carbonation and alter the formation and conversion of HMCs. A relatively unknown phase (i.e., giorgiosite) precipitates in the presence of Mg-acetate with nanowire morphology. With the presence of acetate ligand, nucleation sites formed after the breakdown of Mg-acetate complexes and be replaced by the Mg–CO3 bonds. These sites act as a sink for Mg2+ to grow crystals and prevent the passivation layer of HMCs on brucite's surface. Findings reported here can enable an approach to steer pore solution chemistry in the HMC-based binder for better reaction degree, durability, and mechanical properties.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
