Porous tablets of crystalline calcium carbonate via sintering of amorphous nanoparticles

Porous tablets of crystalline calcium carbonate were formed upon sintering of a precursor powder of amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) under compressive stress (20 MPa) at relatively low temperatures (120-400 °C), induced by pulsed direct currents. Infrared spectroscopy ascertained the amorphous natu...
