Metallic Calcium as a Precursor for Sol-Gel Synthesis of CaCO<sub>3</sub>-SiO<sub>2</sub> and CaO-SiO<sub>2</sub> Systems

A series of binary oxide systems with Ca/Si molar ratios of 0.05, 0.1, 0.25, 0.5 and 1.0 have been synthesized by the sol-gel technique from tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and metallic calcium powder. Upon calcination, a side effect of wollastonite formation as a result of the reaction between the...
