Title: | Mimicking the Formation of Biomineral Composites through Deposition of Calcium Carbonate Thin-Films on Modified Fiber Net Templates | Authors: | Ajikumar, P.K. Lakshminarayanan, R. Suresh, V. |
Issue Date: | 2003 | Citation: | Ajikumar, P.K., Lakshminarayanan, R., Suresh, V. (2003). Mimicking the Formation of Biomineral Composites through Deposition of Calcium Carbonate Thin-Films on Modified Fiber Net Templates. Materials Research Society Symposium - Proceedings 774 : 121-126. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | Thin films of calcium carbonate were deposited on the surfaces of synthetic substrates using a simple biomimetic pathway. The Nylon 66 fiber knit pre-adsorbed with acidic polymers was used as a template for the controlled deposition of CaCO 3 thin film. The presence of the soluble macromolecules on the fiber knit surface was characterized using ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. The characterization of the mineral films was carried out using scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive X-ray scattering (EDX) studies. | Source Title: | Materials Research Society Symposium - Proceedings | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/114449 | ISSN: | 02729172 |
