Abstract

Biomineralization of calcium carbonate, an important inorganic biomaterial, has been extensively studied. In this paper, calcium carbonate was synthesized by biomineralization using gelatin as the matrix. The structural and morphological properties of the resulting CaCO3 materials were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The effects of varying the concentration of gelatin, the concentration of calcium ions and the reaction time were investigated. The results showed that the structures of the product are controlled by the ratio of the concentration of gelatin to calcium ions. As the ratio of the concentration of gelatin to calcium ions was gradually decreased, the compact spherical CaCO3 morphology changed to double-snail-like, spherical-like and finally loose spherical CaCO3aggregates. At higher gelatin to calcium ion rations, vaterite was the stable phase, and the formation of CaCO3 with concave holes was accompanied by a phase transition from vaterite to calcite at lower ratios.
