Acta Crystallographica was established in conjunction with the foundation of the International Union of Crystallography in 1948. Both were established to maintain an international forum for crystallography after the Second World War had led to a loss of international subscription to, and the eventual nine-year closure of, the main pre-war crystallography journal, Zeitschrift für ...

Plastic crystals were discovered in 1938 by Belgian chemist Jean Timmermans [4] by their anomalously low entropy of fusion.He found that organic substances having an entropy of fusion lower than approximately 17 J·K −1 ·mol −1 (~2R, where R is the molar gas constant) had peculiar properties.
Molecules is a peer-reviewed open access scientific journal that focuses on all aspects of chemistry and materials science. It was established in March 1996 and is published monthly by MDPI . From 1997 to 2001, Molbank was published as a section of the journal, before splitting into its own journal.
Liquid crystal color transitions are used on many aquarium and pool thermometers as well as on thermometers for infants or baths. [84] Other liquid crystal materials change color when stretched or stressed. Thus, liquid crystal sheets are often used in industry to look for hot spots, map heat flow, measure stress distribution patterns, and so on.
Crystallography ranges from the fundamentals of crystal structure to the mathematics of crystal geometry, including those that are not periodic or quasicrystals. At the atomic scale it can involve the use of X-ray diffraction to produce experimental data that the tools of X-ray crystallography can convert into detailed positions of atoms, and ...
The Journal of Crystal Growth was founded following the 1966 International Conference on Crystal Growth (ICCG) held in Boston, Massachusetts, United States.Ichiro Sunagawa, who participated in ICCG, wrote in the Journal of the Japanese Association of Crystal Growth that before then, "The crystal growth community was totally fragmented and had remained as a peripheral field at the mercy of ...
Liquid crystals, for example, were originally discovered in the biological sciences when the botanist and chemist Friedrich Reinitzer was investigating cholesterols. [10] Now, however, liquid crystals have also found applications as liquid-crystal displays, liquid crystal tunable filters, and liquid crystal thermometers.
