Zusammenfassung
Understanding crystal growth kinetics is of great importance for the development and manufacturing of crystalline molecular materials. In this work, the impact of additives on the growth kinetics of benzamide form I (BZM-I) crystals has been studied. Using our newly developed crystal growth setup for the measurement of facet-specific crystal growth rates under flow, BZM-I growth rates were measured in the presence of various additives previously reported to induce morphological changes. The additives did not have a significant impact on the growth rates of BZM-I at low concentrations. By comparison to other systems, these additives could not be described as "effective"since BZM-I showed a high tolerance of the additives' presence during growth, which may be a consequence of the type of growth mechanisms at play. Growth of pure BZM-I was found to be extremely defected, and perhaps those defects allow the accommodation of impurities. An alternative explanation is that at low additive concentrations, solid solutions are formed, which was indeed confirmed for a few of the additives. Additionally, the growth of BZM-I was found to be significantly affected by solution dynamics. Changes in some facet growth rates were observed with changes in the orientation of the BZM-I single crystals relative to the solution flow. Of the two sets of facets involved in the growth of the width and length of the crystal, the {10l¯ } facets were found to be greatly affected by the solution flow while the {011} facets were not affected at all. Computational fluid dynamics simulations showed that solute concentration has higher gradients at the edges of the leading edge {10l¯ } facets, which can explain the appearance of satellite crystals. {10l¯ } facets were found to show significant structural rugosity at the molecular level, which may play a role in their mechanism of growth. The work highlights the complexities of measuring crystal growth data of even simple systems such as BZM-I, specifically addressing the effect of additives and fluid dynamics.
