Answer:

The real, naturally occurring crystalline substances do not have perfect crystal structures. They have some disorders or irregularities in the stacking of atoms. Such irregularities in the arrangement of constituent particles of a solid crystal are called defects or imperfections.

Defects are created during the process of crystallization. The imperfections are more if the crystallization occurs at a faster rate. It means that the defects can be minimized by carrying out crystallization at a slower rate.

In fact ideal crystals with no imperfections are possible only at the absolute zero of temperature. Above this temperature no crystalline materials are 100 % pure. They contain defects.
