Forming Cohesive Calcium Oxalate Layers on Marble Surfaces for Stone Conservation

Batch experiments were conducted with Carrara marble cubes to examine the replacement of calciteby calcium oxalate, a proposed method of protection for marble used as building stone. Coherent oxalate coatings formed on the marble surface during reactions with >10 mM oxalic acid. The replaceme...
