Polymorph switching of calcium carbonate controlled by amorphous calcium carbonate-binding protein, an extrapallial fluid (EPF) protein from the pearl oyster, is investigated. The polymorph selection in nacre or pearl growth may be controlled not only by the nucleating template on the matrix but also by the physicochemical effects of EPF proteins.

Selectivity Control

ABSTRACTThe present paper describes the mineralization of calcium carbonate at a low temperature (4 °C) and in presence of additives. Aspartic acid immobilized polyacrylic acid (PA-Asp) induced the nucleation of spherical vaterite polymorph at 4 °C. But at room temperature, a thin film of calcite was deposited. Moreover, stable amorphous calcium carbonate was precipitated in presence of magnesium at low temperature. The observed results show that low temperature and presence of additives influence the nucleation, polymorph selectivity and morphology of the precipitated calcium carbonate.

AbstractWe report a synthesis strategy for pure hydroxyapatite (HAp) using an amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) colloid as the starting source. Room-temperature phosphorylation and subsequent calcination produce pure HAp via intermediate amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP). The pre-calcined sample undergoes a competitive transformation from ACC to ACP and crystalline calcium carbonate. The water content, ACC concentration, Ca/P molar ratio, and pH during the phosphorylation reaction play crucial roles in the final phase of the crystalline phosphate compound. Pure HAp is formed after ACP is transformed from ACC at a low concentration (1 wt%) of ACC colloid (1.71 < Ca/P < 1.88), whereas Ca/P = 1.51 leads to pure β-tricalcium phosphate. The ACP phases are precursors for calcium phosphate compounds and may determine the final crystalline phase.
