Abstract

Molecular dynamics is used to obtain crystal growth rates for a model n-alkane. A united atom model of bulk n-eicosane exhibits an observable phase change from an amorphous phase to a close-packed hexagonal phase, in the presence of a crystal surface. Rates are calculated from the translation of the order–disorder transition in the simulation cell as a function of time. The temperature dependence of crystallization is analyzed in terms of Ziabicki’s rate model, and behavior is considered in light of more coarse-grained models.
