In-situ synchrotron X-ray scattering clarifies the role of templating on calcium carbonate mineralization. Fatty acid monolayers are reorganized by Ca(2+) in the subphase, into structures with no epitaxial relation to CaCO(3) planes. Crystals are not oriented relative to the film; kinetics dominates polytype selection.
