Dissolution kinetics, step and surface morphology of magnesite (104) surfaces in acidic aqueous solution at 60 degrees C by atomic force microscopy under defined hydrodynamic conditions

Dissolution of the (104) surface of magnesite (MgCO3) was studied as a function of bulk solution pH over the range 2.0 < pH < 5.0 at 60 °C using atomic force microscopy (AFM) with well-defined hydrodynamics. The experimental data and corresponding solution of the convective-diffusion e...
