Morphology-controllable self-assembly of strontium carbonate (SrCO3) crystals under the action of different regulators

Electrochemical Capture and Storage of CO2 as Calcium Carbonate

“…In all cases SEM imaging revealed the formation of highly crystalline materials (Figure 2b–d). Figure 2b shows an SEM image of SrCO 3 , which demonstrates a flower‐like microstructure where the elongated needle like structures show a highly textured surface, which is consistent with previous observations on the morphology of this material, [29] whereas EDS analysis confirmed that Sr, C, and O are present (Figure 2e). In the case of CaCO 3 , coalesced cubic crystals with a smooth texture was observed (Figure 2c), which is highly indicative of calcite formation, [30] whereas EDS analysis confirmed the presence of Ca, C, and O (Figure 2f).…”

Amorphous Calcium Phosphate and Amorphous Calcium Phosphate Carboxylate: Synthesis and Characterization

“…The sample prepared for XPS analysis was in the form of pellets. As shown in Figure A–B ACP_CL and ACP_NIT, peaks at around 284 eV and 288 eV denote C–C and O–CO of carbonates . On the contrary, the ACPC_CIT and ACPC_ACE show the presence of COO – groups.…”

“…As shown in Figure 5 A–B ACP_CL and ACP_NIT, peaks at around 284 eV and 288 eV denote C–C and O–C=O of carbonates. 43 On the contrary, the ACPC_CIT and ACPC_ACE show the presence of COO – groups. Therefore, in Figure 5 C, ACPC_ACE shows the absorption band at 284 eV and 288.5 eV represents the acetyl group.…”

A review of nacre-inspired materials: Chemistry, strengthening-deformation mechanism, synthesis, and applications

“…With similar reaction conditions, multi-layered structure of BaCO 3 was also observed. In another study, an amino acid, glycine, was used as a crystal growth modifier for SrCO 3 mineralization [168]. Amino acid can have dual functionality in carbonate formation (1) as an effective CO 2 carrier that passes CO 2 to alkaline earth metal ions from carbonates, and (2) as a crystal growth modifier [169].…”
