← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when rapid decompression triggers adiabatic flash vaporization?
A)Substrate freeze damage propagates rapidly✓
B)Increased convective heat transfer begins
C)Thermal expansion closes micro-fissures
D)Recrystallization increases lattice regularity
💡 Explanation
Adiabatic flash vaporization absorbs heat from the remaining liquid during a phase transition, because evaporative cooling reduces the liquid's temperature dramatically. Therefore, local freezing occurs, rather than heat transfer changes brought about by convection or changes in crystal structure.
