a, PXRD patterns of CDR material after 2–7 weeks. b, SEM-EDX of CDR material after 4 weeks. c, TGA-MS of CDR material after 7 weeks. For a–c, CDR material was kept wet by periodic addition of water. d, Infrared spectra of CDR material after 7 weeks under wet and dry conditions and olivine after 6 months under wet conditions. CO32– peak at around 1,400 cm–1 is observed only for CDR material under wet conditions. Scale bar, 100 μm (b).
