Popis: This paper presents data on the crystallization of various materials using the CF-18 centrifuge at the Gagarin Cosmonaut Center. The geometry and equipment are described. Consideration is given to some peculiarities of preparing and conducting crystal growth experiments in this centrifuge. Vibration in a coordinate system fixed to the crystal growth equipment and the reasons for its initiation are shown. From the results of experiments conducted during the last 10 years, it was concluded that there are many possibilities of using various classes of model materials to study crystal growth processes under high gravity conditions.
