文摘

Isotactic polypropylene (iPP) fiber, the surface of which is hydrophobic, can modulate the crystallization polymorphs of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) at the air/solution interface under mild conditions. The present results provide a novel perspective on controlling the crystallization of biominerals by an insoluble matrix, and they can shed new light on understanding the biomineralization process of CaCO₃ as it occurs in nature.
