GCC and PCC are used as

1116-448: Is about 0.035 kPa. At temperatures above 550 °C the equilibrium CO 2 pressure begins to exceed the CO 2 pressure in air. So above 550 °C, calcium carbonate begins to outgas CO 2 into air. However, in a charcoal fired kiln, the concentration of CO 2 will be much higher than it is in air. Indeed, if all the oxygen in the kiln is consumed in the fire, then

The carbonate is calcined in situ to give calcium oxide , which forms a slag with various impurities present, and separates from the purified iron. In the oil industry , calcium carbonate is added to drilling fluids as a formation-bridging and filtercake-sealing agent; it is also a weighting material which increases

1240-403: Is balanced by the rate of dissolution due to the conditions present. Deep in the ocean, the temperature drops and pressure increases. Increasing pressure also increases the solubility of calcium carbonate. Calcium carbonate is unusual in that its solubility increases with decreasing temperature.

Signs of calcium carbonate have been detected at more than one location (notably at Gusev and Huygens craters). This provides some evidence for

1550-425: Is misleading. Calcium carbonate exists in equilibrium with calcium oxide and carbon dioxide at any temperature. At each temperature there is a partial pressure of carbon dioxide that is in equilibrium with calcium carbonate. At room temperature the equilibrium overwhelmingly favors calcium carbonate, because the equilibrium CO 2 pressure is only a tiny fraction of the partial CO 2 pressure in air, which

Calcium carbonate is commonly used in

2294-831: The ability to grow all three crystal polymorphs of calcium carbonate, mainly as protection (shells) and muscle attachments. Moreover, they exhibit a remarkable capability of phase selection over calcite and aragonite, and some organisms can switch between the two polymorphs. The ability of phase selection is usually attributed to the use of specific macromolecules or combinations of macromolecules by such organisms. Calcite , aragonite and vaterite are pure calcium carbonate minerals. Industrially important source rocks which are predominantly calcium carbonate include limestone , chalk , marble and travertine . Eggshells , snail shells and most seashells are predominantly calcium carbonate and can be used as industrial sources of that chemical. Oyster shells have enjoyed recent recognition as

Hexagonal crystal family In crystallography , the hexagonal crystal family is one of the six crystal families , which includes two crystal systems (hexagonal and trigonal ) and two lattice systems (hexagonal and rhombohedral ). While commonly confused,

2728-431: The formation of calcite and/or promote the nucleation of aragonite. For example, the formation of aragonite is promoted by the presence of magnesium ions, or by using proteins and peptides derived from biological calcium carbonate. Some polyamines such as cadaverine and Poly(ethylene imine) have been shown to facilitate the formation of aragonite over calcite. Organisms, such as molluscs and arthropods , have shown

2790-861: The hexagonal crystal family. Some of the more common ones are listed here. These structures can be viewed as two or more interpenetrating sublattices where each sublattice occupies the interstitial sites of the others. The wurtzite crystal structure is referred to by the Strukturbericht designation B4 and the Pearson symbol hP4. The corresponding space group is No. 186 (in International Union of Crystallography classification) or P6 3 mc (in Hermann–Mauguin notation ). The Hermann-Mauguin symbols in P6 3 mc can be read as follows: Among

The unit cell volume

2914-438: The lattice is non-primitive. The Bravais lattices in the hexagonal crystal family can also be described by rhombohedral axes. The unit cell is a rhombohedron (which gives the name for the rhombohedral lattice). This is a unit cell with parameters a = b = c ; α = β = γ ≠ 90°. In practice, the hexagonal description is more commonly used because it is easier to deal with a coordinate system with two 90° angles. However,

2976-417: The least stable polymorph crystallizes first, followed by the crystallization of different polymorphs via a sequence of increasingly stable phases. However, aragonite, whose stability lies between those of vaterite and calcite, seems to be the exception to this rule, as aragonite does not form as a precursor to calcite under ambient conditions. Aragonite occurs in majority when the reaction conditions inhibit

3038-468: The microscopic level. However, it also leaves specimens vulnerable to weathering when exposed to the surface. Trilobite populations were once thought to have composed the majority of aquatic life during the Cambrian , due to the fact that their calcium carbonate-rich shells were more easily preserved than those of other species, which had purely chitinous shells. The main use of calcium carbonate

3100-464: The minor structure is still unknown. All three polymorphs crystallize simultaneously from aqueous solutions under ambient conditions. In additive-free aqueous solutions, calcite forms easily as the major product, while aragonite appears only as a minor product. At high saturation, vaterite is typically the first phase precipitated, which is followed by a transformation of the vaterite to calcite. This behavior seems to follow Ostwald's rule , in which

3162-403: The partial pressure of CO 2 in the kiln can be as high as 20 kPa. The table shows that this partial pressure is not achieved until the temperature is nearly 800 °C. For the outgassing of CO 2 from calcium carbonate to happen at an economically useful rate, the equilibrium pressure must significantly exceed the ambient pressure of CO 2 . And for it to happen rapidly,

The hexagonal crystal system consists of the 7 point groups that have a single six-fold rotation axis. These 7 point groups have 27 space groups (168 to 194), all of which are assigned to

3658-552: The same as in lonsdaleite (hexagonal diamond ). Each atom is tetrahedrally coordinated. The structure can also be described as an HCP lattice of zinc with sulfur atoms occupying half of the tetrahedral voids or vice versa. The wurtzite structure is non-centrosymmetric (i.e., lacks inversion symmetry ). Due to this, wurtzite crystals can (and generally do) have properties such as piezoelectricity and pyroelectricity , which centrosymmetric crystals lack. The nickel arsenide structure consists of two interpenetrating sublattices:

In the usual so-called obverse setting, the additional lattice points are at coordinates ( 2 ⁄ 3 , 1 ⁄ 3 , 1 ⁄ 3 ) and ( 1 ⁄ 3 , 2 ⁄ 3 , 2 ⁄ 3 ), whereas in the alternative reverse setting they are at the coordinates ( 1 ⁄ 3 , 2 ⁄ 3 , 1 ⁄ 3 ) and ( 2 ⁄ 3 , 1 ⁄ 3 , 2 ⁄ 3 ). In either case, there are 3 lattice points per unit cell in total and
