recrystallization [rē‚krist·əl·ə′zā·shən] (chemistry) Repeated crystallization of a material from fresh solvent to obtain an increasingly pure product. (crystallography) A change in the structure of a crystal without a chemical alteration. (metallurgy) A process which takes place in metals and alloys following distortion and fragmentation of constituent crystals by severe mechanical deformation, in which some fragments grow at the expense of others, so that larger, strain-free grains are formed; it progresses slowly at room temperature, but is greatly speeded by annealing. (petrology) The formation of new mineral grains in crystalline form in a rock under the influence of metamorphic processes. How to thank TFD for its existence?

It also allows users to learn more about recrystallization rates. after deposition, which is common in Paleozoic carbonates where the truly early diagenetic phases, those that formed during shallow burial, are obliterated and/or rendered unrecognizable by pervasive recrystallization (e. Ethanol was then evaporated using nitrogen gas while keeping the solution warm to prevent recrystallization. |
