Heterogeneous nucleation of an n-alkane on graphene-like materials
Nucleating agents are materials that enhance crystallization through their role in heterogeneous nucleation. They are frequently used to control kinetics and morphology in polymer crystallization. However, selection and design of nucleating agents is hindered by a lack of detailed, atomistic level i...
