Crystal Growth in Gel: Nuclei and Precipitation Distribution in Gel

Abstract

AbstractThe investigation of the gel structure and properties influence upon the crystallization processes have been carried out and are reported in this paper. The gel acidity and nucleation centers distribution are chosen as the parameters describing this process. The analytical approximations for the nucleation and precipitation density along the gel column are proposed. It has been shown that in the view of the parameters chosen it is impossible separately to determine the gel structure and proton concentration effects on crystallization processes.
