#ethylenediaminetetraphosphonate

[whats-in-a-sentence]

Experimentally, we usually observe changes in the crystal shape – a clear sign that the additive is binding to the crystal surface and changing the relative rates of growth of different crystal faces (figures 10.20 and 10.21).

[whats-in-a-sentence]

For example, additives such as the ethylenediaminetetraphosphonate anion can substitute for sulfate anions at the surface of a barium sulfate crystal; the system can be modelled in the computer (figure 10.19) to determine the most favourable binding sites.
