Abstract
The aim of this work is to a systematic study of trace element, crystal structure and structural transformation upon heat treatment. The hard clam (Meretrix meretrix) shells was ground and characterized as powder throughout this work. Trace element of the hard clam shells was determination easiest and fasts by energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) techniques, while the crystal structure was identifications by x-ray diffraction (XRD). The result showed that, the element content are Calcium(Ca), Aluminum(Al), Titanium(Ti), Ferrum(Fe), Copper(Cu) and Strontium (Sr), along with the crystal structure of the hard clam shells from the XRD patterns is shown aragonite phase. Another that, the consequence of heat treatment was annealed the hard clam shell samples at specific temperature over the range 300 - 1200 ฐC were studied. ฉ (2013) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
