TY - JOUR TI - A fractal model for the crystallization kinetics AU - Wang Yan JN - Thermal Science PY - 2021 VL - 25 IS - 2 SP - 1313 EP - 1315 PT - Article AB - The Kolmogorov-Johnson-Mehl-Avrami equation is wildly applied in the crystallization kinetics, and Avrami exponent involved in the equation plays an important role in crystallization process. Here we show that the Kolmogorov-Johnson-Mehl-Avrami equation can be obtained by a fractal crystallization model, and the exponent is explained as the fractal dimension in time, which depends upon the chain length and molecule weight.
