Neutron diffraction of amorphous calcium carbonate
Amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) is regularly listed as one of the known calcium carbonate phases, first being identified in 1984. Although ACC is inherently unstable, it is a... -
Unraveling the structural order of amorphous calcium carbonate using inelasti...
Calcium carbonates make up some of the most abundant minerals in the world. They are of great importance in geology and in the field of biomaterials as well as having several... -
Water diffusion mechanism in hydrated amorphous calcium carbonate
Calcium carbonates are highly important in geochemistry and especially in biomineralization. In nature, organisms can form each of the anhydrous polymorphs selectively for... -
Neutron diffraction of fully deuterated amorphous calcium phosphate (d-ACP)
Bone growth involves the formation of hydroxyapatite, HA, nanocrystals in the body. In vitro studies showed that HA does not precipitate directly, but that amorphous calcium... -
