Abstract

A diffusion model of the polymorphic transformation of a molecular crystal accompanied by the escape of mobile defects is suggested. The model describes both bulk and frontal regimes of the process. The frontal regime is possible when the concentration of mobile defects exceeds some threshold value, the existence of which explains spread of times of the beginning of the polymorphic transition in a crystal. The temperature dependence of the rate of a polymorphic process wave was obtained. Internal crystal microstresses that appeared in a phase transition wave were theoretically estimated.
