The graphite found in your favorite pencil could have instead been the diamond your mother always wears. What made the ...

Franziska Emmerling uses the effect to study crystallization without interference from container walls, which can influence the rate of crystal formation (Cryst.

A new theory 'demystifies' the crystallization process and shows that the material that crystallizes is the dominant component within a solution -- which is the solvent, not the solute. The theory ...

The dipole forces lead to faster attachment in less polar solutions, validated by calculations that account for non-DLVO forces. The researchers also showed that the short range, repulsive forces ...

Recrystallization induced by heat treatment regulates the anisotropic behavior of CoCrMo alloys fabricated by laser powder bed fusion (IMAGE) ...

Recrystallization and Grain Growth When materials are altered in shape by plastic deformation their grain shape tends to change. This is illustrated below for a wire being "drawn" into a dimension ...

“Given the importance of crystallization to purification and ensuring physical property control, these material-sparing and easy-to-implement platforms are likely to see widespread use across ...

Crystallization for Water Treatment Crystallization for Water Treatment Waters supersaturated with sparingly soluble salts are encountered in RO/NF (reverse osmosis/nanofiltration) membrane-based ...

As a food scientist, I call the initial surface ice formation “ice recrystallization” and study ways to slow it down. Ice recrystallization damages and destroys organic cells – the smallest ...

From the snow formation process of crystallization, the artful beauty of this chemistry phenomenon can be glimpsed. Actually behind the amazing picture is the great strength of this reaction in ...
