The theoretical growth morphology of Lithium Formate Monohydrate (LFM) had been derived by means of the Periodic Bond Chain (PBC) theory and compared to that of synthetic crystals. From this derivation, the surface anisotropy factors ξ hkl for the different faces were obtained. (© 2005 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
