Abstract
The crystal nucleation and growth rates in eutectic-forming melts are experimentally determined using a universal technique for finding the kinetic parameters of processes involving phase transformations. It is shown that, with an increase in the concentration of the impurity component, the crystal nucleation and growth rates gradually decrease and reach a minimum at a eutectic point. It is confirmed that inter- and extrapolation equations known in the theory of crystallization of one-component melts can be used to obtain reliable values of the kinetic parameters in the crystallization of binary melts at large supercoolings.
