(chemistry) a technique for the purification of chemical compounds in which the compound is dissolved in a solvent and slowly cooled to form crystals

To cause to form crystals or assume a crystalline structure.

(geology) The process of existing grains in metamorphic rocks changing size.

To give a definite, precise, and usually permanent form to

(metallurgy) the growth of grain fragments in an alloy, especially when it is worked by cold rolling

To coat with crystals, as of sugar.

The process or recrystallizing.

To assume a crystalline form.

To take on a definite, precise, and usually permanent form.

The act or process by which a substance in solidifying assumes the form and structure of a crystal, or becomes crystallized.

The body formed by crystallizing.

The formation of a solid from a solution, melt, vapour or from a different solid phase

The process or the result of becoming more definite or precise.

The act or process by which a substance in solidifying assumes the form and structure of a crystal, or becomes crystallized; the formation of crystals.

The body formed by crystallizing; as, silver on precipitation forms arborescent crystallizations.
