Abstract
The growth morphology of monoclinic paracetamol as a function of the supersaturation is determined using Monte Carlo simulations based on the crystal structure. The results are compared with experimental results reported recently on both the morphology and the relevant growth mechanisms. The change of an elongated to a more bulky habit with increasing supersaturation is reproduced well by the simulations. The method used opens ways to predict the crystal morphology for real crystal structures in dependence of supersaturation once information on the relevant growth mechanism for the various faces is known.
