Amorphous Calcium Carbonate
This lecture explores the application of biomineralization inspiration to materials development, focusing on the opportunities for resource-efficient manufacturing with reduced carbon footprint. It delves into the differences between biomineralization and inorganic crystallization, the structure-property relationships of biomineralized minerals, and the influence of external factors on biomineralization. The latest applications of biomineralized materials and the challenges in the field are also discussed. The lecture covers the formation and transformation of amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) and its significance in biological mineral structures.
