In terms of the calculated results, the commonly exposed surfaces of the two minerals were predicted and the relations between surface broken bonds densities and surface energies were analyzed. Then the anisotropic wettability of the commonly exposed surfaces was studied by means of contact angle measurement. The calculation results show that the （101^-4）, （213^-4）and （01 1^-8）surfaces for calcite and （111） for fluorite are the most commonly exposed surfaces and there is a good rectilinear relation between surface broken bond density and surface energy with correlation of determination （R^2） of 0.9613 and 0.9969, respectively. The anisotropic wettability of different surfaces after immersing in distilled water and sodium oleate solutions at different concentrations can be explained by anisotropic surface broken bond densities and active Ca sites densities, respectively.展开更多

Based on the calculation results, the predominantly exposed surfaces in the morphologies of scheelite crystals were predicted. {112} and {001} cleavage surfaces and {112} crystal surface are the commonly exposed surfaces, which are consistent with both previous literatures and the present experimental observations based on the XRD. Cleavage generates more easily along {112} surfaces than along {001} surfaces due to their different interlayer spacings. The surface roughness and appearance of different predominantly exposed surfaces were then investigated using AFM. The roughness of smooth {112} cleavage surface is the lowest among these three surfaces. On {001} cleavage surface, terraces are flat and separated by steps of about 10 nm in height. Subsequently, contact angle measurements were adopted to evaluate the wettability and surface energies of these surfaces. The surface energies evaluated directly correspond to the trend calculated with DFT.展开更多
