Nucleation and growth are critical steps in crystallization, which plays an important role in
determining crystal structure, size, morphology, and purity. Therefore, understanding the …

The vast chemical and structural diversity of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) opens up the
exciting possibility of “crystal engineering” MOFs tailored for particular catalytic or separation …

The nucleation of crystals in liquids is one of nature's most ubiquitous phenomena, playing
an important role in areas such as climate change and the production of drugs. As the early …

Metal–organic frameworks (MOF) are a class of porous materials with various functions
based on their host-guest chemistry. Their selectivity, diffusion kinetics, and catalytic activity …

A look back at LaMer's 1950 model of particle formation is undertaken (LaMer, VK; Dinegar,
RH Theory, Production and Mechanism of Formation of Monodispersed Hydrosols. J. Am …

A review is presented of the pioneering 1950 model (VK LaMer, RH Dinegar, Theory,

In this Review, we present a comprehensive overview of fundamental gas hydrate properties
and formation theories. Key terminologies, theories and hypotheses for hydrate nucleation …

Hydrothermal synthesis has been extensively utilized for fabricating carbon quantum dots
(CQDs). Generally, the average sizes of the CQDs are controlled by using specific precursor …

Kinetic hydrate inhibitors (KHIs) have been studied, developed, and used in the oil and gas
industries for more than two decades. The main active ingredients in commercial KHI …

The formation of solid inorganic salts from solutions is of fundamental importance for
industrial, geological, and biological processes. Here, we review the literature on the …
