The human factor: results of a small-angle scattering data analysis Round Robin
Brian R. Pauw, Glen J. Smales, Andy S. Anker +46
A Round Robin study has been carried out to estimate the impact of the human element in small-angle scattering data analysis. Four corrected datasets were provided to participants…
Towards automation of the polyol process for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles
Jakob Wolf, Tomasz M. Stawski, Glen J. Smales +2
Metal nanoparticles have a substantial impact across different fields of science, such as photochemistry, energy conversion, and medicine. Among the commonly used nanoparticles, si…
Ni- and Co-struvites: Revealing crystallization mechanisms and crystal engineering towards applicational use of transition metal phosphates
Stephanos Karafiludis, Ana Guilherme Buzanich, Zdravko Kochovski +3
Industrial and agricultural waste streams, which contain high concentrations of NH4+, PO43- and transition metals are environmentally harmful and toxic pollutants. At the same time…
Seeds of imperfection rule the mesocrystalline disorder in natural anhydrite single crystals
Tomasz M. Stawski, Glen J. Smales, Ernesto Scoppola +7
In recent years, we have come to appreciate the astounding intricacy of the formation process of minerals from ions in aqueous solutions. In this context, a number of studies have…
Nucleation pathway of calcium sulfate hemihydrate (bassanite) from solution: implications for calcium sulfates on Mars
Tomasz M. Stawski, Rogier Besselink, Konstantinos Chatzipanagisad +3
CaSO4 minerals (i.e. gypsum, anhydrite and bassanite) are widespread in natural and industrial environments. During the last several years, a number of studies have revealed that n…
Mechanism of saponite crystallization from a rapidly formed amorphous intermediate
Rogier Besselink, Tomasz M. Stawski, Helen M. Freeman +3
Although clays are crucial mineral phases in Earth's weathering engine, it is unclear how they form in surface environments under (near-)ambient pressures and temperature. Most syn…
The structure of CaSO4 nanorods -- the precursor of gypsum
Tomasz M. Stawski, Alexander E. S. Van Driessche, Rogier Besselink +4
Understanding the gypsum (CaSO4.2H2O) formation pathway from aqueous solution has been the subject of intensive research in the past years. This interest stems from the fact that g…
Particle-mediated nucleation pathways are imprinted in the internal structure of calcium sulfate single crystals
Tomasz M. Stawski, Helen M. Freeman, Alexander E. S. Van Driessche +4
Calcium sulfate minerals are found under the form of three crystalline phases: gypsum (CaSO4.2H2O), bassanite (CaSO4.0.5H2O), and anhydrite (CaSO4). Due to its relevance in natural…
Mechanism of silica-lysozyme composite formation unravelled by in situ fast SAXS
Tomasz M. Stawski, Daniela van den Heuvel, Rogier Besselink +2
A quantitative understanding of aggregation mechanisms leading to the formation of inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) and protein composites in aqueous media is of paramount interest fo…
>>On demand<< triggered crystallization of CaCO3 from solute precursor species
Tomasz M. Stawski, Teresa Roncal-Herrero, Alejandro Fernandez-Martinez +3
Can we control the crystallization of solid CaCO3 from supersaturated aqueous solutions and thus mimic a natural process predicted to occur in living organisms that produce biomine…
Formation of calcium sulfate through the aggregation of sub-3 nm anhydrous primary species
Tomasz M. Stawski, Alexander E. S. van Driessche, Mercedes Ossorio +2
The formation of crystalline calcium sulfate (CaSO4*xH2O) polymorphs from aqueous solutions is assumed to occur via a single-step process following the classical nucleation paradig…
