Growth of micro-ikebana on a floating substrate: a method to monitor local supersaturation levels.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Small changes make a big difference: we demonstrate how slight changes in the supersaturation have a huge impact on the formed crystal morphology and present a convenient method to monitor the level of local supersaturation on a flat substrate. Further we provide a non-additive based explanation for natural biomineralization processes.

Principles of mimicking and engineering the self-organized structure of hard tissues.
The mechanism of the formation of a self-aligned hydroxyapatite (HAP) nanocrystallite structure was examined. It is found that the highly ordered HAP nanocrystallite assembly is attributed to the so-called self-(homo)epitaxial nucleation and growth. On the other hand, according to this mechanism, a high supersaturation will give rise to a random assembly of HAP crystallites. The effects of ions...
متن کاملChoose a Planting Substrate and Fertilization Method to Achieve Optimal Growth of Araucaria excelsa
Due to the lack of scientific knowledge for the use of substrate and best fertilizing method in the growth of Araucaria excelsa, it is crucially important to find the most appropriate planting substrate and fertilizing method. The effect of conventional fertilizing method and the application of Fe nanofertilizer were studied on the growth of A. excelsa in which six fertilizing methods and three...
متن کاملDetermination of Crystal Growth Rate and Morphology of Barium Carbonate Crystals in a Semi-batch Crystallizer
A semi-batch crystallization system is used to determine growth kinetics and morphology of barium carbonate crystals, under a constant pH value and constant temperature in the various relative supersaturations. Results show that crystal growth rate satisfies a first-order kinetic expression at high relative supersaturation, while at relative supersaturation values lower than 3, the k...
