Influence of Selected Saccharides on the Precipitation of Calcium-Vaterite Mixtures by the CO2 Bubbling Method

open access: yesCrystals, 2019
Calcium carbonate is a compound existing in living organisms and produced for many biomedical applications. In this work, calcium carbonate was synthesized by a CO2 bubbling method using ammonia as a CO2 absorption promotor.

Freshwater pearls as near single crystals for vaterite structure resolution

open access: yes, 2014
International audienceThere has been lots of controversies about vaterite structure in the past decades. Extra peaks occurring out of the hexagonal structure and best described by Kamhi [1] still resist any indexing.
