Hoffman nucleation theory is a model that describes the process of nucleation, specifically in the context of polymer crystallization. It was proposed by the materials scientist R. B. Hoffman in the 1980s. The theory emphasizes the role of chain conformations and the physical mechanisms that govern the nucleation of crystalline structures from an amorphous or semi-crystalline state in polymers.
