Article Rice-Like, Hollow, and Rhombohedral Nano-Calcite Synthesis by Carbonization(Elsevier, 2026) Kilic, Sevgi; Toprak, Gorkem; Ozdemir, EkremControlling the morphology and size of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) remains an essential challenge in the production of high-performance fillers and advanced functional materials. Here, we report a continuous carbonization strategy that enables the synthesis of monodisperse nano-calcite particles with tunable rice-like, hollow, and rhombohedral morphologies through precise control of CO2 dissolution into a flowing Ca(OH)2 solution under diffusion-limited conditions. A two-stage reactor was designed to decouple nucleation and growth by separating the gas-liquid interaction zone from a stabilization tank. pH and conductivity analyses revealed that crystallization is primarily governed by the CO2 dissolution kinetics rather than mixing intensity in the stabilization tank. SEM and XRD analyses demonstrate a distinct crystallization sequence such that initial formation of rice-like calcite, subsequent development of hollow nanoparticles through selective tip dissolution, and final transformation into rhombohedral calcite via dissolution-reprecipitation mechanism. The method provides a reproducible, template-free route for fabricating hollow CaCO3 nanoparticles, overcoming limitations of bubbletemplating and additive-mediated techniques. This scalable process provides a robust foundation for producing high-surface-area CaCO3 nanomaterials which have potential applications in thin films, ceramics, protective coatings, lightweight composites, thermal/acoustic insulation, adsorption, and catalysis, where tailored particle morphology and size can significantly enhance performance.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 13Study of the Scavenging Behavior and Structural Changes Accompanying the Interaction of Aqueous Pb2+ and Sr2+ Ions With Calcite(The Geochemical Society of Japan, 2005) Shahwan, Talal; Zünbül, B.; Akar, DilekThe uptake of Pb2+ and Sr2+ ions from aqueous solutions by calcite was studied at various initial concentrations and pH conditions using the batch method under ambient conditions. XRPD, SEM/ EDS, AAS/AES, and DRIFT techniques were used in characterizing the sorption process. The results indicated that the retention mechanism of Ph2+ and Sr2+ ions ranged from ion incorporation to precipitate overgrowth (cerussite, hydrocerussite for Pb, strontianite for Sr) depending on the concentration and pH conditions. The calcite structure seemed to be entirely vanishing upon formation of cerussite and hydrocerussite while partial dissolution of calcite occurred upon strontianite formation. The formation of precipitates showed rapid kinetics, and equilibrium seemed to be reached within about an hour from the start of mixing. SEM analysis showed that cerussite, hydrocerussite, and strontianite had columnar prismatic-like, tabular hexagonal-like, and needle-like morphologies. Based on a nine-month observation period, dry samples of hydrocerussite seemed to show more morphological stability than cerussite. EDS analysis indicated that Pb2+ sorption is more favored than that of Sr2+, particularly in the phase of precipitate overgrowth. DRIFT analysis indicated a change in the symmetry of the carbonate groups in calcite matrix upon uptake of Pb2+ and Sr2+ cations.
