Chapter II Solution Growth….
From which it is clear that the induction period increases with increase in
super-saturation level. The values of different critical parameters of nucleation,
such as, the interfacial tension (γ) , the energy of formation (ΔG) and the radius
of critical nucleus (r) are calculated using equations (2.21 ), (2.22) and (2.23),
respectively. Equation (2.18) of the section 2.23 suggests a linear nature and
a plot of ln τ versus 1/lnS 2 can be drawn.
