WHAT DOES POLYCRYSTAL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

polycrystal

Polycrystal

Polycrystalline materials are solids that are composed of many crystallites of varying size and orientation. The variation in direction can be random or directed, possibly due to growth and processing conditions. Fiber texture is an example of the latter. Almost all common metals, and many ceramics are polycrystalline. Some elements such as sulfur, while usually occurring in polycrystalline form, may also occur as single crystals. The crystallites are often referred to as grains, however, powder grains are a different context. Powder grains can themselves be composed of smaller polycrystalline grains. Polycrystalline is the structure of a solid material that, when cooled, forms crystallite grains at different points within it. The areas where these crystallite grains meet are known as grain boundaries.

Definition of polycrystal in the English dictionary

The definition of polycrystal in the dictionary is an object composed of randomly oriented crystals, formed by rapid solidification.
