Abstract

Dandelion-like CaCO₃ (DCC) was successfully fabricated in the presence of [MMIM][Me₂PO₄]. [MMIM][Me₂PO₄] not only acts as a template to control the morphology of CaCO₃, but also provides anions to adsorb CO₂ in air facilitating the construction of polymorph CaCO₃. The incorporation of DCC greatly improves the properties of PCL.
