The solubility v temperature phase diagrams for magnesium, calcium, strontium and barium oxide solutions, in lithium, sodium and potassium chloride melts and in the alkaline earth metal chloride melts, have been analysed. The solutions in the alkali metal chlorides are pseudo-binary reciprocal ternary mixtures; the more soluble barium and strontium oxides showed small deviations, calcium oxide showed larger deviations while the extremely sparingly-soluble magnesium oxide showed extensive deviations from ideality. These deviations were related to electrostatic interactions in solution, that depended in turn on some function of reciprocal solute and solvent caiton radii. The solutions in the alkalineearth metal chlorides are binary mixtures with MO · 4 MCl2 solvate formation. — Some preliminary crystallisation experiments were carried out, by slow cooling of saturated solutions in the metal chloride melts: calcium and strontium oxide crystallisation from lithium chloride melts and barium oxide crystallisation from all three alkali metal chloride melts would be worth further investigation. 相似文献

This paper presents studies on the crystallisation of alkaline-earth metal tungstates, molybdates, chromates and sulphates by slow cooling of solutions in lithium chloride and alkaline-earth metal chloride melts at 600° to 1100°C. Solubility — temperature diagrams were prepared for this temperature range. The effects of solute — solvent interaction, crystallisation temperature range and rate of cooling on crystal form and size were investigated. Final crystal size increases with reduced rate of cooling and with increasing crystallisation temperature; barium sulphate crystallisation from lithium chloride melt is anomalous. 相似文献

Varying the temperature has been proven to be beneficial for improving the screening efficiency of protein crystallisation, and thus a crystallisation screening strategy based on this phenomenon can be developed. Such a temperature varying strategy can be applied in practical crystallisation screening, however, there are no guidelines for determining what temperature programme should be utilised. It is therefore necessary to investigate how the temperature programme affects the crystallisation process, so as to help people design a suitable temperature programme. For this purpose, we investigated the effect of temperature programmes on the protein crystallisation (lysozyme, proteinase K, and concanavalin A) that are characterised by different solubility behaviours with respect to temperature. Judging from the reproducibility studies of protein crystallisation with different temperature programmes, we recommend using linear temperature programmes for a moderate time period (24 to 48 h) and a large temperature range according to the properties of the proteins.

The LiPO3 glass crystallisation has been investigated with calorimetry, scanning electron microscopy, optical microscopy and X-ray powder diffraction. It was discovered that the crystallisation at a given temperature depends on the thermal prehistory of the sample. It is shown that the cooled samples can change over the course of several hours. From the microphotographs, it is clear that the surface crystallisation mechanism is predominant for this glass. The velocities of the crystallisation front expansion for 425, 440, 460 °C are 4.9, 18.6 and 34.5 μm/min, respectively. 相似文献

The kinetics of crystallisation of calcium molybdate and tungstate from unstirred supersaturated solutions in lithium chloride melts — in alumina crucibles — was studied by continuous cooling from initial temperature T0 = 800°C down to room temperature at cooling rates RT = 20° to 200°C hr−1. The solutions were analysed chemically and the crystals were examined by optical microscopy. Crystal growth started practically immediately after the onset of cooling: at first, the amount of material deposited onto crystals was far less than the amount of excess solute developed within the supersaturated solutions but crystallisation rates then increased as the crystal sizes increased. Then, after some time t* (at about seventy percent crystallisation), all excess solute was deposited onto growing crystals. 相似文献

The present paper shows the results of a nucleation and crystallisation study of a Na-fluorrichterite glass carried out by dynamic scanning calorimetry (DSC). The kinetic study was performed using different procedures (Kissinger, Matusita–Sakka and Kissinger–Akahira–Sunose (KAS) methods), and the Avrami parameter was determined from the Ozawa and Malek approximations and the Malek equation. The results have indicated the coexistence of surface and bulk crystallisation in the devitrification process of the studied glass. The kinetic study has shown that the activation energy of the crystallisation process is over 400 kJ/mol and that the mechanism proposed is a Johnson–Mehl–Avrami mechanism with n equal to 3, which implies that the crystallisation develops through the three-dimensional growth of crystals. The study of the variation of the activation energy with crystallisation using the KAS method has shown that the crystallisation process undergoes a multiple step mechanism, where the main part of the whole process corresponds to the three-dimensional growth of crystals. The mechanism proposed was confirmed by applying the Pérez-Maqueda et al. criterion. 相似文献

Filtering, drying and aging of crystalline solids can affect crystalline phase(s) and therefore ex situ X-ray diffraction is not necessarily indicative of the in situ crystalline components. This paper examines some of the factors affecting the crystallised phase of aluminium hydroxides in highly caustic solutions. Caustic aluminate solutions were prepared using several different methodologies. Where solutions were prepared from aluminium metal, gibbsite and bayerite were observed to be the crystallisation products. Where gibbsite was used as the aluminium source in the liquors, the crystallised phase was found to be a function of solution conditioning. Solutions prepared at 100°C and at atmospheric pressure crystallised to form only gibbsite. These same solutions subsequently heated to 160°C for 16 h crystallised as gibbsite and bayerite. It has been concluded from these results that the caustic aluminate solutions made using gibbsite were not dissolved on the molecular scale (although optically clear) if the solutions were heated to only 100°C. Further heating at elevated temperatures completed the dissolution process so that the species in solution were similar to those found in solutions made from aluminium metal. Solutions seeded with either bayerite or gibbsite crystallised to form only gibbsite. Only crystallisation in the bulk solution and not on the seed surfaces was recorded. In some cases seeding altered the expected crystallisation products, i.e. from gibbsite and bayerite to only gibbsite. 相似文献

In order to achieve a better agreement between the calculated and experimental results of crystal production by the SSD-process, it was essential to extend the application of the modell presented earlier (Weinert et al.). The thermal and geometrical conditions, which vary strongly during the course of the process and influence the GaP crystallisation, have never been taken into consideration. It has been attempted, in the present work, to consider these changes by dividing the total time of crystallisation into so small durations (Δt), that the evaluation model presented earlier for instant times can be successfully applied. The results of crystallisation for the total period can then be obtained through a mathematical analysis named as sequence correction of process parameters. It has been shown that an exact knowledge of the temperature distribution in the furnace will yield results which are in very good agreement with the experimental values. Moreover, the changes in the process parameters during the whole time of crystallisation have been represented graphically. — Application of this model to other systems, for example to GaAs, is also possible. 相似文献

I present a review of current ideas from colloid physics which might be relevant in order to understand the onset of crystallisation and amorphous aggregation processes in protein solution. In particular, the inadequacy of DLVO theory to account for all phenomenological aspects of crystallisation, such as salt-specificity, and for the basic features of the phase diagram, such as the presence of a metastable fluid–fluid separation, is discussed. The fundamental role of additional short-range attractive forces, microscopically orginating from the salting-out effect, is conversely stressed. In order to establish a simple model of protein interparticle interactions near crystallisation, I discuss some recent results obtained by our group for the osmotic compressibility of the metastable fluid phase of hen egg-white lysozyme. Light scattering measurements were performed in an extended volume fraction range at pH=4.7 as a function of temperature, adding NaC1 to screen the electrostatic interactions. The experimental compressibility up to particle volume fractions Φ≈0.23 is very successfully compared to the theoretical expression for a model of adhesive (“sticky”) hard spheres. This surprising quantitative agreement, obtained using a very simple form for the effective interparticle force, suggests that the thermodynamics of the system in the fluid phase is mainly determined by the very short-range nature of the interactions, and is rather insensitive to the detailed form of the potential. 相似文献

Effect of additives on the periodic crystallisation of magnesium hydroxide is investigated. The dependence of the concentration ageing and pH value of the gel on periodic crystallisation of magnesium hydroxide is also investigated. Velocity constant, spacing coefficient, and the flocculation value are reported. The experimental observations have been accounted. 相似文献

The preclinical development of an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) begins with the selection of a solid state form. A solvate may be selected for development if it is sufficiently stable and if the solvent quantity administered to the patient is lower than the tolerated potential daily exposure (PDE). The selection and process development of a solvate is presented here. The initial crystallisation process gave poor control over the particle size distribution (PSD) and inclusion of additional crystallisation solvent in the crystal lattice. These two API attributes were controlled using micronised seeds and optimising the crystallisation conditions. After filtration, slurry washing with a second solvent was used to replace the high boiling point crystallisation solvent to improve the drying efficiency. The slurry washing was modelled and studied in the laboratory to control the level of unbound crystallisation solvent in the API. The API desolvation during slurry washing was studied by considering thermodynamics, by construction of the ternary phase diagram, and kinetics aspects. This work provides useful approaches and considerations to assess the risks specific to the controlled production of a solvate that are rarely presented in the literature. 相似文献

A novel type of a furnace for Vertical-Gradient-Freeze growth VGF of semiconductors is introduced. The basic element - a silica aerogel crucible - allows us to detect the crystallisation front with a suitable IR-CCD-camera due to its transparency. The growth velocity and the temperature gradient ahead of the solid-liquid interface are directly obtained in an optical way from the experiment. This is demonstrated for the growth of InSb. The excellent thermal insulation properties of the aerogels lead to a nearly one-dimensional temperature field and a nearly planar crystallisation front. 相似文献

This paper presents studies on the crystallisation of alkaline-earth metal tungstates by slow cooling of saturated solutions in sodium tungstate melts at 700 to 1000 °C. Solubility-temperature diagrams were prepared for this temperature range. The effects of variation in the initial crystallisation temperature, cooling rate and metal salt structure on crystal number and size were investigated. Final crystal lengths increased with increase in the initial crystallisation temperature and decreased with increasing rate of cooling. Crystals grown from sodium tungstate melts at any temperature were generally smaller than those grown from lithium chloride melts (at the same temperature): they were similar in size to crystals grown from the metal chloride melts but crystallised at temperatures 150 ° to 250 °C lower. 相似文献

The crystallisation kinetics of strontium tungstate from unstirred saturated solutions in sodium tungstate melts was studied by continuous cooling from initial crystallisation temperatures T0 = 1000° to 800°C to room temperature at cooling rates RT = 0.67° to 3.3°C min−1. The main crystal growth was diffusion rate-controlled; the final crystal growth was rate-controlled by the development rate of excess solute concentration. The estimated diffusion rate constant (kD) values increased with cooling rates and initial crystallisation temperatures. They are higher than the rate constants for diffusion-controlled growth of calcium tungstate from sodium tungstate melts, but very much smaller than those for strontium tungstate from lithium chloride melts. 相似文献

Lepidocrocite and ferrihydrite-seeded Al(OH)3 crystallisation from supersaturated sodium aluminate liquor at 70 °C was investigated using in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The presence of iron oxides and oxyhydroxides in the Bayer process has implications for the nucleation and growth of scale on process equipment, and a greater understanding of the effect they have on Al(OH)3 crystallisation may allow for development of methods for Al(OH)3 scale prevention. The early stages of both crystallisation reactions were characterised by nucleation of gibbsite on the seed material. This was followed by a rapid increase in gibbsite concentration, which coincided with the appearance of the bayerite and nordstrandite polymorphs of Al(OH)3. The lepidocrocite-seeded reaction then proceeded via a mechanism similar to that which has been observed previously for goethite, hematite and magnetite-seeded Al(OH)3 crystallisation. Different behaviour was observed in the ferrihydrite-seeded experiment, with nucleation as well as growth occurring during the period of rapid increase in gibbsite concentration, followed by a period of diffusion controlled growth. 相似文献

Amorphous barium, strontium, calcium and magnesium polymetaphosphate powders (MP2O6)n, n = 20 were prepared by dehydration of the corresponding polymetaphosphate hydrate precipitates. These powders were annealed by different continuous and isothermal heat treatments over the temperature range 450° to 700 °C, the glass transition temperatures Tg to above (Tg + 120) °C. The morphologies at different degrees of crystallisation were studied by scanning electron microscopy. For the main crystallisation process (ten to sixty-seventy percent crystallisation), the powder particles retained their original pea-pod form; then after seventy percent crystallisation, these crystallised particles sintered laterally to lozenge-shaped twin-hexagonal crystals of lengths 0.5 to 3 μm. Differential thermal analysis confirmed that a markedly exothermic crystallisation process (overall enthalpy changes from about 30 to 45 kJ mol−1) was occurring within the powder particles. Crystallisation rates varied from < 0.005 min−1 at temperatures near Tg to > 0.5 min−1 at higher temperatures; the activation energies for this process varied from 360 to 560 kJ mol−1. The completely annealed crystals were studied by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and further differential thermal analysis to 1000 °C. The X-ray diffraction d value patterns, the fusion temperatures and the enthalpies of fusion were all in close agreement with the literature values for the corresponding beta alkaline-earth metal polymetaphosphates prepared by melt crystallisation. 相似文献

Conditions for the preparation of proustite single crystals are reported. For selecting these conditions temperature gradients in the crystallisation zone and in the melt, the rate of moving of the crystallisation front, the radial gradient, tube geometry, stabilisation of temperature, mechanisms of zone travelling, partial pressures were changed. – Differential-thermal, X-ray, and spectral-chemical analysis were applied to initial substances and final crystal bodies. To decrease the influence of spontaneous crystallisation an optimal temperature gradient was applied approaching maximum undercooling at the liquid-solid interface. – Optically transparent proustite crystals resulted. In the range from 1 to 12 μm they show 80% transparency. Microhardness was measured along the growth direction which deviated from the c-axis about 25°. 相似文献

Theory of zone recrystallization in the framwork of already known models of normal crystal growth, growth by screw dislocations and by two-dimensional nucleation is discussed. By mathematical treatment, different from Tillers approach, analytical expressions for supersaturation at the crystallisation interface, for superheating at the dissolution interface, growth rate and some other parameters have been obtained for both cases of normal and screw dislocations growth. It is possible to determine the growth mechanism. 相似文献

An all-alkoxide route to stoichiometric celsian glass has been developed. Sintering to 97% of full glass density, prior to the onset of appreciable crystallisation, was achieved after 30 min at 900 °C. However, crystallisation of metastable hexacelsian, rather than the preferred monoclinic celsian, from stoichiometric glass was difficult to avoid. 相似文献
