Abstract

Hexagonal particles of CaCO₃ with intracrystalline gelatin were obtained from the hydrothermal reaction between calcium nitrate and urea in the presence of gelatin. The overall morphology of these particles obeys the single-crystal nature of vaterite, though they were formed first from nanocrystal aggregations. This paper demonstrate the growth process of vaterite crystals originating from vaterite nanocrystals.
