Abstract
An analysis is carried out on two procedures which have been proposed for the determination of the temperature dependence of homogeneous crystal nucleation rates in glassy solids by using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements. The first procedure is based upon the hypothesis that the density of nucleated particles will increase monotonically as the reciprocal of the temperature corresponding to the maximum crystallization rate increases. The second procedure is based on the observation that the maximum crystallization rate increases as the corresponding temperature grows. The validity of both procedures is assessed for glassy solids by considering two specific crystal growth models.
