Different content of sodium phosphate was added into the hemihydrates sulphate whiskers for 30 min to 2h of standing time. The treated products were researched by SEM, TG-DSC and XRD. The results indicate that when the dosage of sodium phosphate was more than 0.10%, the morphology of hemihydrate calcium sulphate whisker was fully maintained. However, the crystal structure of the products had changed and the half water calcium sulfate turned into of dihydrate calcium sulphate when 0.10 wt% sodium phosphate added. With the increase of standing time, half water calcium sulfate whisker converted into dihydrate calcium sulphate whisker. Sodium phosphate could reduce hydration ability of half water calcium sulfate whisker when the content of sodium phosphate was more than 0.10%.

The effects of limestone, Cl-, Fe3+ and Mn2+ in slurry on the characteristics of calcium sulfate dehydrate (DH) in flue gas desulfurization (FGD) process were investigated. The moisture content, particle size distribution, and crystal morphology were considered as end use characteristics of DH. As a result, the number of needle-like DH crystals was increased with increasing total contents of MgCO3, Al2O3 and Fe2O3 in limestone. Cl ions were reported to distort the crystal structure and change the crystals from orthorhombic to irregular. Mn2+ can increase the desulfurization efficiency by catalyzing the oxidation of SO2. Finally, Fe3+ will inhibit crystal growth of all faces, except {011} and {111}.

Lipids containing long polymethylene chains were among the first compounds subjected to electron diffraction structure analysis. It was only recently realized, however, that various distortions of thin lipid microcrystal plates, e.g. bends, polar group and methyl end plane disorders, etc. (1-3), restrict coherent scattering to the methylene subcell alone, particularly if undistorted molecular layers have well-defined end planes. Thus, ab initio crystal structure determination on a given single uncharacterized natural lipid using electron diffraction data can only hope to identify the subcell packing and the chain axis orientation with respect to the crystal surface. In lipids based on glycerol, for example, conformations of long chains and polar groups about the C-C bonds of this moiety still would remain unknown.One possible means of surmounting this difficulty is to investigate structural analogs of the material of interest in conjunction with the natural compound itself. Suitable analogs to the glycerol lipids are compounds based on the three configurational isomers of cyclopentane-1,2,3-triol shown in Fig. 1, in which three rotameric forms of the natural glycerol derivatives are fixed by the ring structure (4-7).

Our understanding of the structure and the formation of inorganic minerals in the bivalve shells has been considerably advanced by the use of electron microscope. However, very little is known about the ultrastructure of valves in the larval stage of the oysters. The present study examines the developmental changes which occur between the time of conception to the early stages of Dissoconch in the Crassostrea virginica(Gmelin), focusing on the initial deposition of inorganic crystals by the oysters.The spawning was induced by elevating the temperature of the seawater where the adult oysters were conditioned. The eggs and sperm were collected separately, then immediately mixed for the fertilizations to occur. Fertilized animals were kept in the incubator where various stages of development were stopped and observed. The detailed analysis of the early stages of growth showed that CaCO3 crystals(aragonite), with orthorhombic crystal structure, are deposited as early as gastrula stage(Figuresla-b). The next stage in development, the prodissoconch, revealed that the crystal orientation is in the form of spherulites.

YSi2-x thin films were grown by depositing the yttrium metal thin films on (111)Si substrate followed by a rapid thermal annealing (RTA) at 450 to 1100°C. The x value of the YSi2-x films ranges from 0 to 0.3. The (0001) plane of the YSi2-x films have an ideal zero lattice mismatch relative to (111)Si surface lattice. The YSi2 has the hexagonal AlB2 crystal structure. The orientation relationship with Si was determined from the diffraction pattern shown in figure 1(a) to be and . The diffraction pattern in figure 1(a) was taken from a specimen annealed at 500°C for 15 second. As the annealing temperature was increased to 600°C, superlattice diffraction spots appear at position as seen in figure 1(b) which may be due to vacancy ordering in the YSi2-x films. The ordered vacancies in YSi2-x form a mesh in Si plane suggested by a LEED experiment.

Convergent beam electron diffraction is a powerful technique for determining the crystal structure of a material in TEM. In this paper we have applied it to the study of the intermetallic phases in the Cu-rich end of the Cu-Zr system. These phases are highly ordered. Their composition and structure has been previously studied by microprobe and x-ray diffraction with sometimes conflicting results.The crystalline phases were obtained by annealing amorphous sputter-deposited Cu-Zr. Specimens were thinned for TEM by ion milling and observed in a Philips EM 400. Due to the large unit cells involved, a small convergence angle of diffraction was used; however, the three-dimensional lattice and symmetry information of convergent beam microdiffraction patterns is still present. The results are as follows:1) 21 at% Zr in Cu: annealed at 500°C for 5 hours. An intermetallic phase, Cu3.6Zr (21.7% Zr), space group P6/m has been proposed near this composition (2). The major phase of our annealed material was hexagonal with a point group determined as 6/m.
