Since decades, nucleation, or the ability of certain organic or inorganic substances to trigger the crystal growth, has been empirically used in the plastics industry. Talc, for instance, is a well-known nucleating agent of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and other polymers, that allows one to en...
