👉 The term "crystalline" refers to a material that is composed of atoms arranged in a three-dimensional lattice. This structure allows for a wide range of physical properties, including crystallographic symmetry and the ability to form complex structures. Examples of crystals include diamond (SiO2), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), and zirconium carbide (ZrC). Crystalline materials are often used in various applications such as manufacturing, construction, and energy storage.
