2. Reminders on nucleation and growth in solution

A more detailed description of these concepts can be found in the literature ([1] [J 2 710] ). Only the main definitions are given here.

2.1 Sursaturation

If we consider a supersaturated solution, the driving force for crystallization is the difference in chemical potentials between the molecules in the supersaturated mother solution µ and those in the saturated solution µ s at crystal-solution equilibrium. This difference...
