Simulating preferential sorption of tartrate on prismatic calcite surfaces

Understanding the influence of additives on crystal growth is required to engineer the crystal properties according to their functional applications. In this work, the sorption behavior of tartrate on calcite surfaces is investigated employing molecular dynamics simulations to understand additive-mediated crystal growth. The free energy landscapes for the sorption of tartrate are calculated using metadynamics. The adsorption binding energies of favorable conformations, orientations and positions of tartrate near the (104) and (1−10) calcite surfaces are determined. The obtained results provide a molecular-level explanation of the experimentally observed tartrate-stabilized exposure of prismatic {; ; 1−10}; ; faces during calcite growth. The simulations show that tartrate preferentially adsorb directly to the (1−10) calcite surface, whereas tartrate is more loosely adsorbed on the (104) surface, mainly by solvent-mediated binding. The (1−10) geometry of calcite surface sites closely matches the structure of tartrate, with a specific role of carboxylate and hydroxyl groups in recognizing the calcium and carbonate ions, respectively. Two stable adsorption configurations are identified for the (1−10) face: (1) adsorbed tartrate with the effect of surface-induced conformational change and (2) incorporated tartrate into the surface by fitting one of the carboxylate groups into lattice position normally occupied by carbonate ions and additionally stabilized by binding of both hydroxyl groups to neighboring carbonate ions. The results indicate that surface energetics, structural matching and adsorbed water layer play a major role in the strength of the interactions and hence in the expression of calcite morphology. Preferential adsorption of tartrate on {; ; 1−10}; ; surfaces could stabilize these otherwise fast-growing faces and thus inhibit crystal growth in {; ; 1−10}; ; directions.
