The present invention is related to the methods of manufacture of single-phase aragonite by controlling calcium ions, particularly, to the methods of manufacture of single-phase aragonite in solution process by controlling the rate of elution of calcium ions in the suspension of calcium hydroxide by adding the highly concentrated aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide to the suspension of calcium hydroxide and adding the aqueous solution of sodium carbonate to the above mixed aqueous'solution at a constant rate.

2 industrial raw material such as the filler for rubber, plastic, paints, or the pigment for paper, etc. Particularly, the 0.05 /cm down-shaped needle shape can increase oil absorption owing to the increase in the specific surface area, and the needle shape havirig the largest diameter of 50 - 60 M has a superior impact resistance. Therefore, it is expected to have an effect of increasing strength if aragonite is mixed with a conformation control thermoplastic resin or a polypropylene resin as filler.
However, aragonite is in the meta-stable phase existing stably in the temperature range of below 75K under atmosphere, and is precipitated at a temperature higher than 60 - 80 C due to a faster rate of crystallization in the range of high temperature compared to that of calcite. And it may be synthesized at a low-temperature owing to the affects of pH of the reaction solution, ions to be added, concentration of calcium hydroxide, etc., but it is difficult to synthesize single-phase aragonite.

[Technical solution]
4 As a result of repeating studies in order to manufacture single-phase aragonite, the inventors of the present invention found out that the concentration of calcium ions in the early reaction stage should be lower than the solubility in water in order to manufacture single-phase aragonite. They also learned that it was very effective to increase the concentration of the aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide in order to lower the concentration of calcium ions in the early reaction stage, and completed the present invention from the above findings.
Accordingly, the present invention is related to the methods of manufacture of single-phase aragonite by controlling calcium ions, particularly, to the methods of manufacture of single-phase aragonite in the aqueous solution process by controlling the rate of elution of calcium ions in the suspension of calcium hydroxide by adding the highly concentrated aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide to the suspension of calcium hydroxide and adding the aqueous solution of sodium carbonate to the above mixed aqueous solution at a constant rate.
In order to manufacture single-phase aragonite with a high yield, which is an object of the present invention, it is preferable to use the aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide having a higher concentration than that of calcium hydroxide contained in the suspension, more preferably, to add 3 to 10 mol/L of the aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide with respect to 0.2 to 3 mol/L of the suspension of calcium hydroxide. And it is possible to manufacture single-phase aragonite having a large aspect ratio by inserting the aqueous solution of sodium carbonate to the mixed solution of the suspension of calcium

And it is possible to manufacture single-phase aragonite having a large aspect ratio by inserting the aqueous solution of sodium carbonate to the mixed solution of the suspension of calcium
5 hydroxide and the aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide at a low rate.
Therefore, the present invention provides methods of manufacture of single-phase aragonite through the control of calcium ions comprising the steps of:
a) manufacturing 0.2 to 3 mol/L suspension of calcium hydroxide in which calcium hydroxide is dispersed in distilled water;
b) manufacturing the mixed solution of the suspension of calcium hydroxide and the aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide by adding 3 to 10 mol/L aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide to the above suspension of calcium hydroxide; and c) manufacturing single-phase aragonite by inserting the aqueous solution of sodium carbonate at a constant rate while stirring the above mixed solution.

The flow chart of manufacturing single-phase aragonite
6 according to the present invention is shown in Figure 1, and equipment for manufacturing single-phase aragonite according to the present invention is shown in Figure 2.
As shown in Figure 1, the processes of manufacturing single-phase aragonite according to the present invention are comprised of the steps of manufacturing the suspension of calcium hydroxide; manufacturing the mixed solution of the suspension of calcium hydroxide and the aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide by mixing the aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide with the above suspension of calcium hydroxide;

electrode (3) and a thermometer (5) installed inside of the above reactor are connected.
The methods of manufacture of single-phase aragonite according to the present invention are illustrated more concretely as follows:
As described in the above, it is necessary to control the concentration of calcium ions in the early stage of the reaction in order to manufacture single-phase aragonite. The aqueous solution of NaOH is added for such control of the concentration. This is to lower the initial concentration of Ca2+ ions by reducing the solubility of calcium hydroxide by the common ion effect. The ions existing in the entire reaction system before adding NaOH include Ca2+, OH-, Na+, and C032-, where OH- ion becomes a common ion if NaOH is added. If a common ion exists in a solution, the initial concentration of Ca'+ ion is reduced as the ionic product becomes greater than the solubility product and the solubility is reduced.
Figure 3 shows changes in the solubility of calcium hydroxide according to the concentration of the aqueous solution of
electrode (3) and a thermometer (5) installed inside of the above reactor are connected.

Figure 3 shows changes in the solubility of calcium hydroxide according to the concentration of the aqueous solution of
8 PCT/KR2005/004691 sodium hydroxide in 1.5 M suspension of calcium hydroxide. The solubilities of calcium hydroxide according to temperature in the state that NaOH is not added are shown in terms of dotted lines in order to compare solubilities when NaOH is added and not added. As shown in Figure 3, it is seen that the solubility of calcium hydroxide is reduced as the concentration of the aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide in the suspension of calcium hydroxide is increased, which leads to lowering of the concentration of calcium ions, that are the main reaction products, in the reaction solution, and supersaturation, which is greatly affected by the concentration of the reaction products, is also lowered.
Therefore, in the present invention, the aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide having a higher concentration than that of the suspension of calcium hydroxide is used, more concretely, 3 to 10 mol/L aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide with respect to 0.2 to 3 mol/L suspension of calcium hydroxide. If the concentration of the aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide is less than 3 mol/L, it is failed to manufacture single-phase aragonite since calcite is produced; and if it exceeds 10 mol/L, it is not economical since the concentration of calcium ions is reduced exceedingly and the reaction time becomes too long. It is preferable that the concentration of the above aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide is 5 to 8 mol/L, at which pure aragonite having no calcite practically may be
Therefore, in the present invention, the aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide having a higher concentration than that of the suspension of calcium hydroxide is used, more concretely, 3 to 10 mol/L aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide with respect to 0.2 to 3 mol/L suspension of calcium hydroxide.

It is preferable that the concentration of the above aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide is 5 to 8 mol/L, at which pure aragonite having no calcite practically may be
9 manufactured. Having no calcite practically means that no calcite peaks are shown in the x-ray diffraction pattern of aragonite obtained through washing, filtering, and drying aragonite produced in the above step c). If it is expressed in terms of a numerical value, it means that the content of calcite is less than about 0.01%.
The mixed solution of the suspension of calcium hydroxide and the aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide is heated to 60 to 80 'Q and the aqueous solution of sodium carbonate is inserted to the mixed solution while stirring it. It is preferable that the concentration of the aqueous solution of sodium carbonate is 0.1 to 1 mol/L, more preferably, 0.1 to 0.5 mol/L, and the rate of insert is 1 to 5 ml/minute. If the concentration of sodium carbonate is too low or the rate of insert is too low, the reaction may not be progressed well since it takes too long to react or the nucleus is not produced; and if the concentration of sodium carbonate is higher than the above or the rate of insert is higher than the above, the size of crystals is small and it is difficult to manufacture single-phase aragonite since the rate of producing the nucleus is increased.
Also, it is preferable that the above reaction temperature is 60 to 80 - Q preferably, 75 to 80 C since the production of aragonite is more favorable at a high temperature compared to the production of calcite. That is, if the reaction temperature is lower than 60 ~ it is difficult to manufacture single-phase aragonite due to the production of calcite, and the reaction system may become unstable due to the evaporation of moisture during the reaction if the reaction temperature is 5 higher than 80'C
