Adsorption of Organic Phosphonates on Calcium Sulfate Dihydrate Crystals
Keyword(s):
Abstract 14C labeled ethylenediaminetetra (methylene phosphonic acid) and triethylenediaminetetra (methylene phosphonic acid) have been used to study their adsorption on calcium sulfate dihydrate crystals radiometrically under different conditions. Kinetics of crystal growth of calcium sulfate dihydrate crystals was studied both in solution and on heated metal surface. The growth of gypsum has been shown to follow an equation second order in supersaturation. The heterogeneity of surface sites is responsible for crystal habit modification in the presence of impurities. Blocking of the active growth sites by the inhibitors results in inhibiting the scale formation.
