Formation of Silkworm-Like Vaterite via Orientated Attachment Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

Worm-like vaterite crystals were directly formed via an oriented attachment progress from nanocrystals in the presence of 50% volume ration of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at ambient temperature. The complex and unusual morphogenesis of the precipitated vaterite under ambient experimental conditions may imply that a simply synthesis routine which can be provided for certain materials with special morphologies.
