Crystallization is a central process in physical sciences by which solid materials are recovered or purified. This book aims to give the reader both a firm understanding of the principles of crystallization and an insight into some of emerging issues and applications of it. The first section, "Crystallization - Science and Technology", provides detailed case studies of some of the most common types of crystallization. The first chapter, for example, reviews the principles of recrystallization of pharmaceutical ingredients, a common procedure in drug design and development. The second section, "Advances in Crystallization Processes", delivers the latest research on approaches to crystallization, such as the crystallization of nanomaterials, amorphous materials and thin films. One chapter, for example, discusses the crystallization process involved in producing special types of glass for optical and industrial use. This combination of more general overviews with more specialist and advanced works gives this book wide appeal. It will be of benefit to students in physical, materials, biological and medical sciences, as well as to researchers at more advanced levels in academia and in industry.
