Room temperature vortex fluidic synthesis of monodispersed amorphous proto-vaterite.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Monodispersed particles of amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) 90 to 200 nm in diameter are accessible at room temperature in ethylene glycol and water using a vortex fluidic device (VFD). The ACC material is stable for at least two weeks under ambient conditions.

Proto-calcite and proto-vaterite in amorphous calcium carbonates.
Crystallization of calcium carbonate, typically, progresses sequentially via metastabIc phases. Amorphous CaC03 (ACC) generally forms initially, both in vitro and in vivo, and is the precursor of the predominant anhydrous polymorphs (calcite, aragonite, and vaterite). [I-I3] A new picture of the crystallization of calcium carbonate is emerging, which involves transformations of clusters to ACC ...
متن کاملSpinning up the polymorphs of calcium carbonate
Controlling the growth of the polymorphs of calcium carbonate is important in understanding the changing environmental conditions in the oceans. Aragonite is the main polymorph in the inner shells of marine organisms, and can be readily converted to calcite, which is the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate. Both of these polymorphs are significantly more stable than vaterite, which is th...
متن کاملPorous tablets of crystalline calcium carbonate via sintering of amorphous nanoparticles
Porous tablets of crystalline calcium carbonate were formed upon sintering of a precursor powder of amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) under compressive stress (20 MPa) at relatively low temperatures (120–400 uC), induced by pulsed direct currents. Infrared spectroscopy ascertained the amorphous nature of the precursor powders. At temperatures of 120–350 uC and rates of temperature increase of 2...
متن کاملTransformation and crystallization energetics of synthetic and biogenic amorphous calcium carbonate.
Amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) is a metastable phase often observed during low temperature inorganic synthesis and biomineralization. ACC transforms with aging or heating into a less hydrated form, and with time crystallizes to calcite or aragonite. The energetics of transformation and crystallization of synthetic and biogenic (extracted from California purple sea urchin larval spicules, Str...
متن کاملSize-controlled synthesis of monodispersed gold nanoparticles stabilized by polyelectrolyte-functionalized ionic liquid.
The size-controlled synthesis of monodispersed gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) stabilized by polyelectrolyte-functionalized ionic liquid (PFIL) is described. The resulting AuNPs' size, with a narrow distribution, can be tuned by the concentration of HAuCl(4). Such PFIL-stabilized AuNPs (PFIL-AuNPs) showed a high stability in water at room temperature for at least one month; they were also quite stab...
