Abstract:

CaCO3 particles were prepared by gas diffusion method with CaCl2 and (NH4)2CO3 as raw materials and sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate(SDBS) as the template. The effect of SDBS of different concentrations on the crystallization behavior and morphology of CaCO3 in solution was studies. The results of scanning electron microscopy(SEM), X-ray diffraction(XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR) show that the CaCO3 sample was mainly calcite crystal with regular rhombic hexahedron morphology when SDBS was not added to the solution, and vaterite crystals with spherical morphology when SDBS was added to the solution, indicating that adding SDBS to the solution could change the crystal growth mode of CaCO3. With the increase of SDBS concentration in the solution, the relative content of vaterite crystals in the CaCO3 samples increased gradually. When the concentration of SDBS was 1.2 mmol/L, almost all the samples were vaterite crystals. With the further increase of SDBS concentration in the solution, due to the change of micelle morphology and the deterioration of stability, the metastable vaterite crystal in the sample changed to the stable calcite crystal, the relative content of the vaterite crystal gradually decreased, and the crystal presented flower, hexagonal, spindle shapes and other morphological features.
