Abstract:Calcium carbonate is a common natural mineral with a
wide range
of applications. In this study, hollow calcite microspheres were successfully
synthesized by using calcium chloride and sodium carbonate as raw
materials in an SDS–PEG system. The results suggested that
the appropriate concentration of SDS is necessary during the spherical
crystallization of calcium carbonate. It was found that the crystals
started to aggregate under the effect of SDS, and aggregation was
enhanced with an increase in SDS concentra… Show more
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.
