The modern analogue of a Cretaceous coral with a calcitic skeleton

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski

It was argued that, in contrast to all known modern scleractinian corals that form aragonite skeletons, the original mineralogy of the Cretaceous "Coelosmilia" (ca. 70-65 Ma) was calcite during a period when the Mg2+/Ca2+ ratio of the seawater was presumab ...

Optimizing Mesostructured Silver Catalysts for Selective Carbon Dioxide Conversion into Fuels

Sophia Haussener, Silvan Suter

Mesostructured silver catalysts have shown a substantial rise in reaction selectivity for the conversion of CO2 into fuels with increasing thickness of ordered, inverse-opal films. The challenge lies in the optimization of the morphology to maximize the CO ...

Variations in elastic and electrical properties of crustal rocks with varying degree of microfracturation

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Lucas Xan Pimienta, Luis Felipe Orellana Espinoza

This work aims at investigating the effect of varying degrees of microfracturing on the joint elastic and electrical transport properties of rocks. Different crustal rocks were subjected to Thermal Treatment, expected to induce microfracturing, up to diffe ...

Tensile response of low clinker UHPFRC subjected to fully restrained shrinkage

Emmanuel Denarié, Mohamed Abdul Hafiz, Amir Hajiesmaeili

This paper addresses the tensile response of Strain Hardening Ultra High Performance Fiber Reinforced Concretes (SH-UHPFRC) subjected to restrained autogenous shrinkage deformations under full and partial restraint conditions, right after casting and until ...

Sequential Cascade Electrocatalytic Conversion of Carbon Dioxide to C-C Coupled Products

Sophia Haussener

Cascade catalytic processes perform multi-step chemical transformations without isolating the intermediates. Here, we demonstrate a sequential cascade pathway to convert CO2 to C2+ hydrocarbons and oxygenates in a two-step electrocatalytic process using CO ...

Carbonation of low carbon binders

Wioletta Soja

To reduce the impact of the embodied energy and of the carbon dioxide emissions of concrete, the use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) in the cement industry has become a common practice. However, the practical experience on such cements is li ...

Nacre-inspired Hard and Tough Materials

Esther Amstad, Huachuan Du

Nature fabricates materials with properties that are difficult to reproduce with manmade counterparts. For example, nacre, composed of layers of CaCO3 crystals that are interspaced with small quantities of organic components, is one of the toughest known b ...

Carbon dioxide reduction by dinuclear Yb(ii) and Sm(ii) complexes supported by siloxide ligands

Marinella Mazzanti, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Davide Toniolo

Two dinuclear homoleptic complexes of lanthanides(II) supported by the polydentate tris(tertbutoxy) siloxide ligand ([Yb2L4], 1-Yb and [Sm2L4], 1-Sm, (L = (OtBu)3SiO−)) were synthesized in 70–80% yield and 1-Sm was crystallographically characterized. 1-Yb ...

From fault creep to slow and fast earthquakes in carbonates

François Xavier Thibault Passelègue

A major part of the seismicity striking the Mediterranean area and other regions worldwide is hosted in carbonate rocks. Recent examples are the destructive earthquakes of L'Aquila (M-w 6.1) in 2009 and Norcia (M-w 6.5) in 2016 in central Italy. Surprising ...

Reactivity and Performance of Limestone Calcined-Clay Cement (LC3) Cured at Low Temperature

Karen Scrivener, Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva

Limestone calcined-clay cements (LC3) take advantage of the synergetic effects of calcium carbonate reaction with the additional aluminium provided by the calcined clay. As temperature decreases, calcium carbonate solubility increase, therefore, the early- ...
