Effect of pH on calcite growth at constant aCa2+/aCO32- ratio and supersaturation

In situ Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) was used to study the growth of calcite at a constant supersaturation (O=6.5) and solution stoichiometry (aCa2+/aCO32-=1) in the pH range 7.5-12. The calcite growth rate decreased with increasing pH in the studied range. The results can be successfully explained...
