“In addition, as calcium silicate weathers, it releases silicon to the soil in a form that the plants can take up, which can improve crop yields and resilience.

The calcium silicate market size is expected to experience considerable expansion throughout the anticipated time period due to growing applications across many end use sectors, including ...

Buildings coated in a cement-based paint that “sweats” could help keep communities cool during the hottest days of the year.

The Global Calcium Silicate Insulation Market Size was Valued at USD 281.42 Million in 2023 and the Worldwide Calcium Silicate Insulation Market Size is Expected to Reach USD 438.90 Million by ...

When heated, the minerals transformed into magnesium oxide and calcium silicate, which react quickly with acidic carbon dioxide in the air.

Kanan and his colleague Yuxuan Chen, also at Stanford University, have developed a way to produce magnesium oxide and calcium silicate using a process inspired by cement production.
