Characterisation of calcium carbonate and its polymorphs from cockle shells (Anadara granosa)
(Elsevier B.V., 2011-11-10)Calcium carbonate and its polymorphs from cockle shells (Anadara granosa) and commercial calcium carbonate were characterised using a variable pressure scanning electron microscopes (VPSEM), a transmission electron microscope ... -
A novel method for the synthesis of calcium carbonate (aragonite) nanoparticles from cockle shells
(Elsevier B.V., 2013-02)We report a simple, novel and low-cost method for the synthesis of aragonite nanoparticles from cockle shells. Aragonite is one of the least abundant biogenic polymorphs of calcium carbonate and is widely used as a biomaterial ...
