We introduce a titration‐based method to explore the early stages of the crystallization of small organic molecules with carboxylic acid functions in water. It enables the determination of fundamental physicochemical characteristics (pKa values and solubilities) and the quantitative study of prenucleation, nucleation, and early postnucleation stages ...

Timelapse of a rotating vaterite within a living macrophage.avi
Time-lapse videography of a trapped and rotating vaterite microsphere that had been internalised within a living macrophage. The vaterite is approximately 1um in diameter within a ~2.5um macropinosome and was trapped with 50 mW in the ROTs set up.

Natural limestone, known for its high calcium carbonate (CaCO _3 ) content (∼95%) and safety in health applications, is widely used in science and industry. It exists in three forms: calcite, vaterite, and aragonite.

ABSTRACT This study investigated the effects of incorporating ionomer scraps and CaCO3 nanoparticles on the rheological, mechanical, thermal, and morphological properties of neat polyamide 6 (PA6) and a PA6/ionomer scraps (80/20) blend. The ionomer formed an immiscible dispersed phase within the PA6, acting as an impact modifier; however, it reduced ...

ACC forms via aggregating prenucleation clusters that gatekeep its chemical composition. Ion identity steers the path: Ba and Sr substitute Ca in clusters, thereby inhibiting nucleation, with a dose‐dependent switch of Sr to induction. Mg partitions into Mg‐rich and Mg‐poor clusters; the latter form ACC, expelling Mg.

Reliable Estimation of Wavenumbers for Calcite Peaks
The wavenumbers of the calcite peaks were accurately estimated using a combination of a He–Ne laser and Ne emission lines. The values following the ± symbol represent the expanded uncertainties, corresponding to an approximate 95% confidence interval. ABSTRACT The Raman‐shift wavenumber ( ∆ν~), which is calculated as the difference between the absolute

Microbialite Diversity and Ocean Redox Geochemistry of the Late Tonian Callison Lake Formation
ABSTRACT Microbialites provide a unique insight into ancient microbial processes and environments, but trends in the diversity of unlaminated microbialites remain poorly understood. The ca. 745 Ma Callison Lake Formation in the Yukon (northwest Canada) features a range of microbialites which are diverse at both the mesoscale and microscale.

Applications of Vaterite in Drug Loading and Controlled Release
Currently, the drug delivery system (DDS) based on nanomaterials has become a hot interdisciplinary research topic. One of the core issues is drug loading and controlled release, in which the key lever is carriers.

In Situ Raman Spectroscopy of a Silica Gel‐Templated Hydration Pathway in CO2‐Activated Cement
ABSTRACT This study investigates early‐age carbonate mineralization in cementitious systems using in situ Raman microspectroscopy. In the presence of dissolved CO2, clinker phases undergo accelerated dissolution, decomposing to form various calcium carbonate polymorphs and a transient amorphous silica gel network.
