One of the critical factors affecting growth rates is the gasphase temperature which can be reached in a cvd method. For molecules of a liquid to evaporate, they must be located near the surface, be moving in the proper direction, and have sufficient kinetic energy to overcome liquid phase intermolecular forces. Also very important when analyzing the impact of pollutants on the environment, such as discharging partially treated wastewaters to the stream. As energy is added, the temperature rises, and so does the kinetic energy. A substance can change from one phase to another through what is known as a phase transition.
