Lamellar




In Chemistry (especially Mineralogy and Materials Science ), Lamellar Structure s are fine layers, alternating between different materials. They can be produced by chemical effects (as in Eutectic solidification), biological means, or a deliberate process of Lamination , such as Pattern Welding .
Lamellae can also describe the layers of atoms in the crystal lattice of a material such as a metal.

The term has been used to describe the construction of Lamellar Armour , as well as the layered structures that can be described by a Lamellar Vector Field .

In a water-treatment context, Lamellae filters may be referred to as plate or tube filters.
