Earth is flooded with plastics and the need for sustainable recycling strategies for polymers
has become increasingly urgent. Enzyme‐based hydrolysis of post‐consumer plastic is an …

The rapid increase of nanoparticles in the environment has occurred largely as a result of
anthropogenic activities, such as industrialization, including accelerated mining activities …

Abstract Knowledge of the mechanism of calcite dissolution in seawater is a critical
component of our understanding of the changing global carbon budget. Towards this goal …

Influences of alkali or alkaline earth sulfates on the hydration of cubic tricalcium aluminate
(C 3 A) were evaluated by in situ dissolution rate measurements, by ex situ near-surface …

Surface reactivity is a major parameter controlling mineral reactivity, and microscopic
techniques investigating surface retreat with time have pointed at the heterogeneous and/or …

In a unique “perspectives” format that examines both past and future, we appraise the field of
crystal dissolution kinetics, showing how the last century's strong progress in experimental …

The great reactivity of tricalcium aluminate (C 3 A) with water and subsequent rapid
precipitation of insoluble products are serious challenges to learning how salts affect its …

The surface normal dissolution flux of beta dicalcium silicate is quantified using in situ digital
holographic microscopy. The dissolution flux in highly undersaturated flowing solutions …

Chemical weathering produces solutes that control groundwater chemistry and supply
ecosystems with essential nutrients. Although microbial activity influences silicate …

Recent numerical investigations revealed that the heterogeneity of the dissolution rate
observed in numerous experiments cannot be explained by fluid transport effects. This …
