CXXXVIII. 364 A polycrystalline wire can be considered as an assemblage of crystallites in which the axes of crystal symmetry are oriented at random. 1950Sci. News XV. 61 Distorted lattice planes will not slide over one another easily and hence polycrystalline metals are often hard. 1959Times Rev. Industry Mar. 32/3 Fine grinding stone..consisting of a sintered polycrystalline ruby material. 1970Sci. Jrnl. Feb. 46/1 Bulk metals are polycrystalline and the grains are randomly oriented. Hence ˌpolycrystaˈllinity, polycrystalline condition or structure.
