Popis: The action of the saturated Ca(OH) 2 solution on the surface of the set styreneacrylate dispersion was studied by scanning electron microscope and infrared spectroscopy. The slices of the set dispersion were immersed into the saturated Ca(OH) 2 solution. Action in such conditions on and near to the set dispersion surface was investigated in comparison with that in the saturated Ca(OH) 2 solution. The obtained results indicate, that first spherical and globular Ca(OH) 2 particles arise in the form of long fibres and of cluster habits on the set dispersion surface. Ca(OH) 2 is converted continually to the carbonate phase. The carbonate crystallization proceeds first through the aragonite-like and lately through the calcium-like carbonate rise. It is supposed, that air voids formed in the set dispersion surface serve as the CO 2 -giving supplies, in which the carbonation proceeds preferentially compared to the Ca(OH) 2 Solution.
