Crystallization and Materials Science of Modern Artificial and Natural Crystals

Authored by Elena Borisenko and Nikolai Kolesnikov, this huge PDF is a comprehensive package on crystallization, especially dealing with artificial and natural crystals. Important matters include analyses of thermal barrier coatings, nucleation and crystal growth in phase-separated glasses, and the development of novel metamaterials. The research paper has further examined the influence of amino acid additives on ammonium dihydrogen phosphate crystal growth. It further discusses the biomineralization process of biological systems such as the special types of crystal formations within an organism and then delves deeper into biomimetic crystallization techniques whereby macromolecular additives are used along with the implications of crystal growth for health protection. This resource is very useful for the researcher and practitioner in materials science, offering insights into the complexities of crystallization processes and their applications in high technology and biomaterials.
