Lyotropic liquid crystalline phases have immediate relevance in biology because of the prevalence of organized lipid structures in living systems. The incorporation of hydrophilic reagents in water domains with well-defined nanoscale geometry favors the construction of nanostructured materials of inorganics, and/or the inorganic−organic hybrids. In this paper, the lamellar mesophases composed of calcium dodecyl sulfate (CDS), n-pentanol, and ammonia (5 wt% NH3·H2O in water) were constructed and used as the precipitation media of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Under the atmosphere of carbon dioxide gas, the occurring solid−liquid−gas reaction resulted only in rhombohedral calcite particles at the beginning, then ultimately in layer-cake aggregates of calcite and stick-bundle aggregates of aragonite. Furthermore, the aragonite content increased with the proceeding time interval of the three-phase reaction, indicating a special crystallization habit of CaCO3 in the lamellar mesophases of CDS. Aside from these, t...
