Crystallisation

Crystallisation


en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 noi 2012

În volumul Crystallisation, structura materialului urmează formatul riguros al unei dezbateri academice de înalt nivel, debutând cu prestigioasa prelegere Spiers Memorial despre particulele „patchy” și continuând cu prezentări tehnice dublate de sesiuni de discuții generale. Metodologia abordată de RSC Publishing prioritizează examinarea experimentală și teoretică a fazelor timpurii ale formării cristalelor, oferind o perspectivă rară asupra procesului de tranziție de la starea de cluster la cea solidă. Considerăm că organizarea conținutului, care trece de la studiul aminoacizilor și al hemoglobinei la sisteme anorganice complexe precum ferihidritul, indică o acoperire transdisciplinară esențială pentru cercetarea contemporană. Subliniem relevanța capitolelor dedicate tehnicilor de detecție rapidă ESI-MS în comparație cu ultracentrifugarea analitică, oferind date concrete despre stabilitatea precursorilor. Această lucrare reprezintă o alternativă la New Perspectives on Mineral Nucleation and Growth pentru cursurile de cristalografie și chimia materialelor, cu avantajul includerii transcrierilor discuțiilor directe între experți, ceea ce clarifică nuanțele mecanismelor de nucleare non-clasică. Credem că progresia de la studiul teoretic al suprasaturării la aplicațiile practice în nanotehnologie face din acest titlu o resursă metodologică superioară în studiul sistemelor coloidale și minerale.

Descriere scurtă

The last ten years have seen a revolution in our understanding of the mechanisms of biological crystal growth. While it had long been assumed that crystallisation would occur by the same classical mechanisms which form the basis for most descriptions of crystallisation processes, it is now becoming apparent that this is not the case. There are a number of key observations which have changed our view of crystallisation mechanisms. While it had long been assumed that crystalline biominerals typically form by ion-by-ion growth, it is now recognised that they often precipitate via amorphous precursor phases. This is well established for calcium carbonate and there is growing evidence that biogenic crystalline calcium phosphate phases may form via an analogous route. Recent re-examination of the structure of many calcium carbonate biominerals is also suggesting that "non-classical" crystallisation pathways, where crystals grow from the assembly of precursor particles, may also be widespread. Significantly, these mechanisms are not unique to the biological world. Possibly partly inspired by the identification of these biogenic mineralisation strategies, there is currently great interest from the general crystal growth community in these new and controversial ideas. A number of studies on crystal nucleation have recently re-examined classical nucleation theory, and the observation of pre-nucleation clusters is a recurrent theme of great interest. This controversial result apparently contradicts classical nucleation theory which leads the subject of crystal nucleation and growth via assembly to demand attention. The Scientific Committee warmly invites you to take part in this thought-provoking Discussion and looks forward to welcoming you to Leeds.

Notă biografică

Faraday Discussions documents a long-established series of Faraday Discussion meetings which provide a unique international forum for the exchange of views and newly acquired results in developing areas of physical chemistry, biophysical chemistry and chemical physics. The papers presented are published in the Faraday Discussion volume together with a record of the discussion contributions made at the meeting. Faraday Discussions therefore provide an important record of current international knowledge and views in the field concerned. The latest (2010) impact factor of Faraday Discussions is 4.5
