Powdery calcium carbonates, predominantly calcite and aragonite, with planar defects and cation-anion mixed surfaces as deposited on low-carbon steel by magnetic water treatment (MWT) were characterized by X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, and vibration spectroscopy. Calcite were found to form faceted nanoparticles having 3x (01̄14) commensurate superstructure and with well-developed {112̄0...

A calcium shellac (CS) matrix was used to encapsulate polymeric melamine formaldehyde microcapsules (A) or CaCO3 nanoparticles-stabilized microcapsules (B), both of which encapsulated an oilbased active ingredient, producing A-CS or B-CS composite microcapsules. The mechanical properties and oil release profiles of the composite microcapsules were evaluated. The composite microcapsules showed e...

Results: The rise in serum calcium observed after ingestion of calcium carbonate with a calcium peak of 0.56 mg/dl (p=0.032), and it was higher when compared to SFM 0.26 mg/dl (p=0.284). There was no significant elevation of serum calcium after ingestion of SFM. The calcium responses were negative after the administration of omeprazole in comparison with the use of calcium carbonate and SFM, re...

Calcium carbonate is a cheap and readily available filler used in rubber industry. This material is not compatible with rubber matrix, so many researchers have tried to modify its surface with various materials in order to increase its hydrophobicity and improve compatibility with the rubber matrix. In this effort, surface modification of calcium carbonate was carried out by 1.5%, 3% and 4% ste...

CONTEXT Hyperphosphatemia has an important role in the development of bone and mineral abnormalities in end-stage renal disease (ESRD). OBJECTIVE To compare the phosphorus binding power and the hypercalcemic effect of calcium acetate and calcium carbonate in hemodialysis patients. TYPE OF STUDY Crossover, randomized, double-blind study. PLACE A private hospital dialysis center. PARTICIP...

Introduction In this phase III, open-label, single-arm, multi-center 12-week study, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of combination therapy with sucroferric oxyhydroxide (PA21) and calcium carbonate for hemodialysis patients with hyperphosphatemia. Methods We enrolled 35 subjects aged ≥ 20 years with end-stage kidney disease and serum phosphorus 3.5-6.0 mg/dl who were undergoing hemodialy...

a fundamental study of scale formation of calcium carbonate (caco3) for producing oil wells hasbeen carried out. this article presents the study of the prediction of salt deposition in two differentsynthetic formation waters and investigates the effects of temperature and pressure on calciumcarbonate precipitation. the dependence of the induction period of the precipitation of calciumcarbonate ...

A solution-phase route has been considered as the most promising route to synthesize noble nanostructures. A majority of their synthesis approaches of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) are based on either using fungi or the CO2 bubbling methods. Here, we approached the preparation of nano-precipitated calcium carbonate single crystal from salmacis sphaeroides in the presence of zwitterionic or cationic...

Four self-assembled monolayer surfaces terminated with -COOH, -OH, -NH2 and -CH3 functional groups are used to direct the biomineralization processes of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in low Ca(2+) concentration, and the mechanism of nucleation and initial crystallization within 12 h was further explored. On -COOH surface, nucleation occurs mainly via ion aggregation mechanism while prenucleation io...
