Amorphous Calcium Carbonate: Synthesis and Potential Intermediate in Biomineralization

Faatz, M., Gröhn, F., Wegner, G.·2004·Advanced Materials

Abstract

Amorphous calcium carbonate is produced as spherical particles (see Figure) via in‐situ generation of CO2 by hydrolysis of dialkyl carbonates in aqueous solution of CaCl2 at room temperature. This method of synthesis (precipitation) allows detailed studies of the particle formation process. Temperature‐dependent results are rationalized in terms of a phase diagram that assumes a liquid–liquid immiscibility gap with a lower critical separation temperature.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
