Additive Speciation and Phase Behavior Modulating Mineralization

摘要: Natural and synthetic composite materials as yet elude a complete understanding of their formation from organic inorganic constituents. Addressing the interactions between additives metastable precursors during mineral nucleation growth is critical challenge. In this study, we elucidate additive-controlled mineralization by novel approach for in situ continuous monitoring widely applied diffusion-based methodology, assisted quantitative assessment nucleation. The amorphous superstructures attributed to complex interplay species viz. ions, ion-clusters, well unique phase behavior additive molecules relative maturing phase. A pH-dependent conditioning demixing transient liquid-like additive-ion complexes are shown play roles tuning architecture. Thus, modulation mineralizat...
