Water Is the Key to Nonclassical Nucleation of Amorphous Calcium Carbonate

Calcium carbonate is a ubiquitous mineral that represents one of the most significant biominerals,a major contributor to carbon sequestration through geological deposits, and a technological hindrance as a result of scale formation. Amorphous calcium carbonate is intimately involved in the nucleatio...
