Morphological Investigation Of Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) Characteristics With The Presence Of Additives During Synthesis

The research was conducted in order to investigate the crystal morphology of precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) characteristics during the synthesis with the presence of additives. The controlling variables such as concentration of calcium hydroxide (milk of lime) and flow rate of carbon dioxide g...
