Calcium sulphate crystals, SEM
Calcium sulphate crystals. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of crystals of calcium sulphate (CaSO4), or gypsum. Calcium sulphate is used as plaster of Paris. Calcium sulphate is also one of the minerals that hardens water. Hard water leaves deposits when boiled off or evaporated. This is the source of the limescale that is found inside kettles and other appliances. Magnification: x1270 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of calcium sulphate crystals, as seen through a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The coloured image reveals the mesmerizing patterns and structures formed by these crystals. Calcium sulphate, also known as gypsum, is widely used in various applications. One prominent use is as plaster of Paris, which has been utilized for centuries in art and construction due to its ability to harden quickly when mixed with water. However, this versatile compound also plays a role in our daily lives beyond its artistic applications. Calcium sulphate is one of the minerals responsible for water hardness. When hard water is heated or evaporated, it leaves behind unsightly deposits known as limescale. This stubborn residue can often be found inside household appliances like kettles. The magnified view at 1270 times enlargement allows us to appreciate the intricate details of these calcium sulphate crystals on a small 6x7cm scale. The image serves as a reminder of the fascinating world that exists at microscopic levels and highlights the importance of understanding chemical compounds such as calcium sulphate in both scientific research and everyday life.
