Nano-structured calcium diethylenetriaminepenta (methylenephosphonic acid) (Ca-DTPMP) as a
mineral scale inhibitor is prepared in an aqueous reaction media using cationic surfactant CTAB.
The aim of the present study is to determine the effect of particular factors such as pH, sonication
and concentrations of the surfactant, calcium and DTPMP on the crystallite size, particles size
distribution, shape and morphology. The physical characteristics of the prepared nanoparticles are
assessed by X-ray diffraction and high-resolution scanning electron microscopy. The results show
that more dispersed and fine nanoparticles of Ca-DTPMP are obtained at higher pH values. At the
beginning, the size and morphology of the produced Ca-DTPMP become more favorable with
increasing of the CTAB/Ca molar ratio; however their properties decline with further enhancing of
the CTAB/Ca molar ratio. The effect of concentration of the calcium and DTPMP show that the
fine and dispersed spherical Ca-DTPMP nanoparticles are produced by either increasing calcium
concentration or decreasing of the DTPMP concentration. The sonication treatment causes the size
of the particles increases, but has a significant decrease in coherency and agglomeration of the
particles so that a more dispersion of the particles are produced.
