Abstract
Compositions and methods in which aragonite, and especially oolitic aragonite particles are used as infill material in an artificial turf structure or as sub-growth substrate for natural grass. Advantageously, oolitic aragonite particles provide a superior microporous surface for effective water saturation to impart thermal control and environmental compatibility, ammonia neutralization of urine by reducing urea hydrolysis with the free calcium presented in the aragonite particles, aragonite particle uniformity allowing for reduced compaction and desirable water draining, and the microporous oolitic aragonite particles have an evaporative cooling surface.
