An atomic force microscopy study of calcite dissolution in saline solutions: The role of magnesium ions
In situ Atomic Force Microscopy, AFM, experiments have been carried out using calcite cleavage surfaces in contact with solutions of MgSO4, MgCl2, Na2SO4 and NaCl in order to attempt to understand the role of Mg2+ during calcite dissolution. Although previous work has indicated that magnesium inhibi...
