Abstract:Bendable organic crystal is a burgeoning research field due to interesting phenomenon and broad application prospects. Here we report a plastic bendable pharmaceutical crystal, flufenamic acid (FFA) form Ⅲ crystal. The crystal exhibits plastic bending when the force is applied on (100) face. The column-like structure and the slip planes among them are the basic features responsible for the exceptional plasticity. The spatially resolved atomic-level studies via X-ray diffraction and micro-Raman reveal the struc… Show more
