Abstract
AbstractIn this paper, the effect of trace components in dolomite on the morphology of vaterite calcium carbonate is studied in the CaCl2‐NH3‐CO2 system, with a focus on the effect of cations (Mg2+, Fe3+, Si4+, and Al3+) in the solution. Ca2+, NH4+, Mg2+, Fe3+, Si4+, and Al3+ in the digestion solution are proportionally prepared into a solution by analyzing the calcium rich digestion solution which is obtained by digesting dolomite with ammonium chloride solution. Under the optimal conditions, NH3 is introduced at a rate of 0.5 L min−1 for 1 h, CO2 is introduced at a rate of 0.5 L min−1 for 1 h and rotation speed of 500 r min−1 to prepare the vaterite calcium carbonate. The results show that the addition of Mg2+, Fe3+, Si4+, and Al3+ can promote the growth of vaterite calcium carbonate. Among them, adding Mg2+ and Si4+ can promote the dispersion of vaterite, Fe3+ and Al3+ can cause agglomeration of vaterite. Material Studio software is used to predict the crystal morphology of vaterite calcium carbonate under ideal conditions, and the calculation results are basically consistent with the experimental results.
