title: Self-assembled monolayers: solidification of carbamazepine in Form II at an interface.
abstract: A self-assembled monolayer incorporating well-spaced biphenyl moieties initiates solidification of carbamazepine at its interface. A detailed analysis of the resulting crystals using X-ray powder diffraction, FTIR-ATR as well as thermomicroscopy, indicates a preference for its crystallization in trigonal (Form II) polymorph.
