Mineral carbonation offers durable CO₂ sequestration and pathways to decarbonise cementitious materials. This review systematically compares Ca- and Mg-based precursors in terms of six dimensions: polymorphism, influencing factors, carbonation degree, carbonation products, application and sequestration efficiency.
