Research shows the role of crystal-facet anisotropy in struvite's chemical stability in magnesium phosphate cement applications, indicating important durability issues.
The long-term durability of magnesium phosphate cement (MPC), particularly in repair applications, is critically limited by the chemical stability of its primary hydration product, struvite (MgNH 4 PO 4 ·6H 2 O), in alkaline environments.
