Direct molecule dynamics (MD) simulations have also been performed to study heterogeneous nucleation and growth of iron on C60 molecule. The grown mechanism of this crystallization process was explored. The results indicate that 92 iron atoms attach to C60 molecule surface can form new covalent bond, forming a closed regular icosahedron. More atoms grow in layer to form bigger regular closed clathrate base on the structure of former one. As increase of atoms number, there will appear some crystal faces.

AbstractThe transformation of amorphous to crystal (a-c) structure of Si02 layers, thermally grown on both (100) and (111) Si substrates, was carried out by CO2 laser, flash-lamp, and furnace heat: treatments. All the treatments resulted in S102 crystallization according to two different mechanisms: normal and self-sustained growth processes. The kinetic characteristics of the S102 crystallization process such as incubation time, rates of nucleation and growth, and the microstructure of the Si-Si02 interface were investigated and are discussed from the point of view of growth theory. The a-c transformation in Si3N4 and SixOyNz films on Si substrates is also discussed.

AbstractAn amorphous-nanocrystal reinforced composite coating was fabricated on a TA15 alloy by laser cladding of BN-NiCoCrAlY mixed powders. Experimental results indicated that a portion of the amorphous phases just began to crystallize when the laser molten pool had completed the solidification process. The nucleation and growth of the amorphous phases were retarded by the nanocrystalline phases to a certain extent during the crystallization process. Due to the rapid solidification process of the laser molten pool, a number of the fine precipitates were produced. The production of eutectics, such as Co-Ti and Ti-Si compounds, in such a coating greatly promoted the formation of amorphous phases.

Continuous crystallizers can exhibit periodic cycles of supersaturation, production rate, suspension concentration, crystal size and related quantities. These cycles are most pronounced at the beginning of the crystallization process and depend on the value of kinetic parameters whether they are damped during the run time. Apparently, the cycling behaviour of the crystallizing system depends on the value of ratio of the nucleation and growth exponents n/g. The higher the value of this ratio, the more pronounced is the instability of the system. Admixtures that have a significant effect on the kinetic parameters can dramatically affect the dynamic behaviour of crystallizers so that the steady state may not be established at all.

This paper reviews investigations on protein crystallization. It aims to present a comprehensive rather than complete account of recent studies and efforts to elucidate the most intimate mechanisms of protein crystal nucleation. It is emphasized that both physical and biochemical factors are at play during this process. Recently-discovered molecular scale pathways for protein crystal nucleation are considered first. The bond selection during protein crystal lattice formation, which is a typical biochemically-conditioned peculiarity of the crystallization process, is revisited. Novel approaches allow us to quantitatively describe some protein crystallization cases. Additional light is shed on the protein crystal nucleation in pores and crevices by employing the so-called EBDE method (equilibration between crystal bond and destructive energies). Also, protein crystal nucleation in solution flow is considered.

A significant proportion of materials are produced in crystalline form. Many of these crystals are produced by nucleation and growth from solution. In these processes, the control of the crystal size distribution can be critically important for efficient downstream operations such as filtration and drying, and product effectiveness (e.g., flowability, bioavailability, tablet stability). Such control has recently become possible due to new sensor technologies that can peer into the crystallization process as it occurs, and high resolution algorithms which can efficiently simulate crystallization processes. This paper provides an overview of recent advances in areas.

A Zr55Cu30Ni5Al10 bulk amorphous alloy was prepared by using copper mold suction casting and the X-ray diffractometer (XRD) was utilized to determine its structure. The non-isothermal crystallization behavior of the amorphous alloy was studied via a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) by Kissinger and Ozawa methods. The results showed that all the thermodynamic parameters move to higher temperatures with increasing heating rates. The activation energies for crystallization calculated by Kissinger and Ozawa method are 291.27 and 288.53 kJ/mol, respectively. With the increase of heating rate, the rate of x vs. T descends. The crystallization mechanism is typical nucleation and growth of crystalline grains, among which the latter dominates the total crystallization process.
