The factors affecting their color are very complex, such as metal elements, chromoprotein, and nucleation materials. we analyzed the crystal orientation of nacreous layers with different color prepared from fresh water clams Hyriopsis cumingii Lea by X ray diffraction . The results show that the crystal CaCO 3 orientation on specific plane is responsible for the color of pearl and nacreous pearl color.展开更多
