  2. 1. Porous Amorphous Calcium Carbonate and Phosphate : Synthesis and Application

    Author : Rui Sun; Ocean Cheung; Maria Strømme; Ken Welch; Denis Gebauer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; amorphous calcium carbonate; amorphous calcium phosphate; stabilization; crystallization; porous material; drug delivery; gas adsorption; Engineering Science with specialization in Nanotechnology and Functional Materials; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot nanoteknologi och funktionella material;

    Abstract : The synthesis of porous amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) and porous amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) was developed in this thesis. Porous ACC with specific Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area of >350 m2/g was synthesized using a surfactant free approach. The high surface area of porous ACC was related to its nanostructure. READ MORE

  4. 2. Calcium Carbonate Precipitation in Presence of Carboxylic Acids

    Author : Karl-Johan Westin; KTH; []
    Keywords : calcium carbonate; precipitation; crystallization; carboxylic acids;

    Abstract : With a metal removal process based on precipitation aimed atthe purification of pulping effluent as a starting point, theinfluence of carboxylic acids on calcium carbonateprecipitation has been studied. The chosen carboxylic acids canact as more or less strong complexing agents for aqueouscalcium, just as many compounds found in pulping liquors. READ MORE

  6. 4. Synthesis and modification of potential CO2 adsorbents : Amine modified silica and calcium carbonates

    Author : Baroz Aziz; Niklas Hedin; Lennart Bergström; Helmut Cölfen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Amine-modified silica; carbon capture; Fractional factorial design; IR spectroscopy; calcium carbonate; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Abstract : The prospect of rapid changes to the climate due to global warming is subject of public concern. The need to reduce the emissions of atmospheric green house gases and in particular carbon dioxide is greater than ever. Extensive research is performed to find new solutions and new materials, which tackles this problem in economically benign way. READ MORE

  7. 5. Carbonate Ions and Gastric Cancer

    Author : Roy Ehrnström; Malmö Patologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicine human and vertebrates ; ODC; COX-2; inflammation; Wistar rats; duodenogastric reflux; Medicin människa och djur ; proliferation; gastrojejunostomy; carbonate ions; Experimental gastric cancer;

    Abstract : Nearly one million new cases of gastric cancer are diagnosed annually throughout the world. Even though the incidence has fallen dramatically in recent decades, this disease is still the second leading cause of cancer death in a global perspective. READ MORE
