when tensioned and at decreasing rates for wire drawing, rolling and compression (Barto & Ebert 1971). The orientation of a grain and how the orientation changes during deformation influence the accumulation of stored energy and hence the rate of recrystallization. The mobility of the grain boundaries is influenced by their orientation and so some crystallographic textures will result in faster growth than others. Solute atoms, both deliberate additions and impurities, have a profound influence on the recrystallization kinetics. Even minor concentrations may have a substantial influence e.g. 0.004% Fe increases the recrystallization temperature by around 100C (Humphreys and Hatherly 2004). It is currently unknown whether this effect is primarily due to the retardation of nucleation or the reduction in the mobility of grain boundaries i.e. growth.
There are many factors affecting crystallization but the basic factors are:1. The concentration of the solution 2. The temperature to which the solution is heated or cooled 3. The nature of the solute like solubility etc. 4. Pressure around 5. Time 6. The pureness of crystals
