crystalline_structure

A <crystalline_structure> is a <class_of_arranged_individual> that is a form in which many simple elements and their natural compounds regularly aggregate by the operation of natural affinity: it has a definite internal structure, with the external form of a solid enclosed by a number of symmetrically arranged plane faces, and varying in simplicity from the cube to much more complicated geometric bodies.
EXAMPLE Ferritic, martensitic, and austenitic are examples of <crystalline_structure>.
