Abstract

In situ synthesis of calcium carbonate particles has been carried out in poly(vinylalcohol) solution and physical gels under free drift conditions. A multitude of morphologies, ranging from spherulites to helical structures of calcite, are produced by systematically varying the polymer concentration both in solution as well as in gels.
