By congruent crystallisation from aqueous solution the efflorescence phase Ca(CH3COO)(HCOO)·H2O found on calcareous heritage objects and the hitherto unknown Ca3(CH3COO)4(HCOO)2·4H2O were obtained, characterised and their crystal structures solved.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
