Preferred term

Dendrite  

Definition

  • 1. A crystalline morphology produced by skeletal growth, leading to a 'tree-like' appearance. (IUPAC). 2. A dendrite in metallurgy is a characteristic tree-like structure of crystals growing as molten metal solidifies, the shape produced by faster growth along energetically favourable crystallographic directions. (Wikipedia). 3. A dendrite is a characteristic of a metal or alloy that makes them weak and imperfect. This defect occurs when a hot metal alloy is cooled instantly or too quickly for diffusion to take place. (https://www.corrosionpedia.com/definition/369/dendrite)
