Influence of chemical and structural factors on the calcite-calcium oxalate transformation

The mechanisms and epitaxial relationships of the replacement of calcite by calcium oxalate have been studied by means of SEM, 2D-XRD and AFM techniques. At acidic pH, oxalate-bearing solutions react with freshly cleaved calcite fragments through a pseudomorphic, coupled dissolution–precipitation re...
