Formation of calcium sulfate through the aggregation of sub-3 nanometre primary species

The formation pathways of gypsum remain uncertain. Here, using truly in situ and fast time-resolved small-angle X-ray scattering, we quantify the four-stage solution-based nucleation and growth of gypsum (CaSO(4)·2H(2)O), an important mineral phase on Earth and Mars. The reaction starts through the...
