Abstract
Crystal structure parameters (coordination numbers, interatomic distances, unit cell volumes), characteristics of phase transformations, and physical properties of macrosamples can depend on the size of crystal grains. The size effect is especially significant in the electrophysical properties of crystals, including the effect of dispersed powders on the properties of polar liquids contacting with them.
