Abstract
The fractional conversion of vaterite into calcite promoted by grinding and its influence on the thermal behaviour of the samples is studied. The occurrence of a complex exothermal effect in the DSC curves is ascribed to the recovery of crystallinity of calcite and vaterite, on the basis of X-ray line profile analysis.
