  2. Recrystallization (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recrystallization_(metallurgy)

    Recrystallization is defined as the process in which grains of a crystal structure come in a new structure or new crystal shape. A precise definition of recrystallization is difficult to state as the process is strongly related to several other processes, most notably recovery and grain growth. In some cases it is difficult to precisely define ...

  3. Deformation mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deformation_mechanism

    In geology and materials science, a deformation mechanism is a process occurring at a microscopic scale that is responsible for deformation: changes in a material's internal structure, shape and volume. [1] [2] The process involves planar discontinuity and/or displacement of atoms from their original position within a crystal lattice structure.

  4. Recrystallization (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recrystallization_(chemistry)

    Recrystallization is a method used to purify chemicals by dissolving a mixture of a compound and its impurities, in an appropriate solvent, prior to heating the solution. [1] Following the dissolution of crude product, the mixture will passively cool, yielding a crystallized compound and its impurities as separate entities.

  5. Waiting for Guffman - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waiting_for_Guffman

    Corky leads the cast to believe that a positive review from Guffman could mean their show might go all the way to Broadway. The program itself is designed to musically retell the history of Blaine, whose founding father was a buffoon incapable of distinguishing the geography of middle Missouri from the Pacific coastline.

  6. Crystallization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystallization

    The crystallization process consists of two major events, nucleation and crystal growth which are driven by thermodynamic properties as well as chemical properties. Nucleation is the step where the solute molecules or atoms dispersed in the solvent start to gather into clusters, on the microscopic scale (elevating solute concentration in a ...

  7. Dynamic recrystallization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_recrystallization

    Dynamic recrystallization (DRX) is a type of recrystallization process, found within the fields of metallurgy and geology. In dynamic recrystallization, as opposed to static recrystallization, the nucleation and growth of new grains occurs during deformation rather than afterwards as part of a separate heat treatment.

  8. Recrystallization (geology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recrystallization_(geology)

    During this process, the physical structure of the minerals is altered while the composition remains unchanged. [1] [2] This is in contrast to metasomatism, which is the chemical alteration of a rock by hydrothermal and other fluids. Solid-state recrystallization can be illustrated by observing how snow recrystallizes to ice.

  9. Grain growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grain_growth

    Grain growth has long been studied primarily by the examination of sectioned, polished and etched samples under the optical microscope.Although such methods enabled the collection of a great deal of empirical evidence, particularly with regard to factors such as temperature or composition, the lack of crystallographic information limited the development of an understanding of the fundamental ...
