Chemical transport reaction

A diagram of a typical chemical transport reaction. The solid reactants (A) react to make a gas intermediate (B), which moves and condenses into the product (C).

A chemical transport reaction is a type of chemical process. It is used to purify chemicals and grow crystals. Chemical transport reactions work by converting the chemicals into a gas with a chemical reaction, and then undoing that reaction somewhere else to leave behind the original compound.[1]
