Comparison of the time taken by acetaminophen in deionized water to completely crystallize on glass and Silver Island Films (SIFs) at room temperature and microwave heating power level (MW_PL) 1, 5, 10. DI-Deionized water. RT-Room Temperature. Each experiment was repeated 10 times. Sample size is 20 microliters.
