The results are analyzed and discussed, which show that the effects of different impurities on the growth habit of KDP are not the same. It is due to the different adsorption mechanism of the impurities. %K KDP crystal %K growth habit %K tapering %K super-saturation %U http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/BF02900697
