What Is Crystallization?

Crystallization, or crystallisation, is the process of atoms or molecules arranging into a well-defined, rigid crystal lattice in order to minimize their energetic state. The smallest entity of a crystal lattice is called a unit cell, which can accept atoms or molecules to grow a macroscopic crystal.

During crystallization, atoms and unit cells bind together with well-defined angles to form a characteristic crystal shape with smooth surfaces and facets.

Crystallization can occur in nature but also has broad industrial applications as a separation and purification step in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries.
