In situ imaging of interfacial precipitation of phosphate on goethite

Adsorption and subsequent immobilization of orthophosphate on iron oxides is of considerable importance in soil fertility and eutrophication studies. Here, in situ atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been used to probe the interaction of phosphate-bearing solutions with goethite, a-FeOOH, (010) cleava...
