Determination of the Nucleation and Growth Kinetics for Aqueous L-glycine Solutions from the Turbidity Induction Time Data
As the turbidity induction time measurements are influenced by the size distribution of the nuclei at the detection point, these data should provide important information on both nucleation and growth.

description | As the turbidity induction time measurements are influenced by the size distribution of the nuclei at the detection point, these data should provide important information on both nucleation and growth. A model is developed in this work to determine the nucleation and growth kinetics of aqueous L-glycine solutions using the turbidity induction time data for various supersaturations from 293.15 K to 313.15 K. The photomicroscopic growth experiments of aqueous L-glycine solutions are also conducted to determine the growth kinetics of nuclei under the same conditions for comparison. The results indicate that the interfacial energy obtained from this model is consistent with that obtained based on the traditional method by assuming <inline-formula> <math display="inline"> <semantics> <mrow> <msup> <msub> <mi>t</mi> <mi>i</mi> </msub> <mrow> <mo>−</mo> <mn>1</mn> </mrow> </msup> <mo>∝</mo> <mi>J</mi> </mrow> </semantics> </math> </inline-formula>. The growth kinetics, including the growth activation energy and the kinetic growth parameter, obtained from this model using the induction time data are close to those obtained from the photomicroscopic growth experiments performed in this work. |
