Nanomechanical Characterization of Enzyme Induced Carbonate Precipitates
The mechanical properties of calcium carbonate minerals formed by enzyme-induced carbonate precipitation (EICP) were studied using nanoindentation. Two types of precipitates were considered: (i) a “baseline” precipitate, synthesized via urea hydrolysis in an aqueous solution of urease enzyme, urea,...
