What factors are related to material sticking to the walls of a reactor?

As the title suggests, what factors are related to material sticking to the walls of a reactor? Previously, many users have asked this question. In my opinion, there are the following factors: 1. The inherent properties of the material itself; 2. The high temperature of the reactor walls, which results in slow speeds near the walls inside the reactor, leading to coking; 3. An improperly designed agitator. What other factors might there be?
Basically, these are the factors. That’s what I personally think as well
1. Smoothness of the reactor wall； 2. Heat exchange efficiency of the reactor ； 3. Is the material ratio reasonable?
The smoothness of the wall surface definitely has an impact； Additionally, I think the heating rate (or the rate of material exchange at the reactor wall) also has an impact. It’s like cooking in a pot: if you use a low heat, the food won’t burn even if the cooking speed is slow, but if you use high heat, it will burn right away
Yes, so the heat exchange rate of the reactor is also a factor.
The rate of temperature change, as well as several other factors such as the smoothness of the inner wall in contact with the material and the pressure inside the tank
