nucleatiekinetiek
Nucleatiekinetiek is a subfield of physical chemistry and materials science that studies the rate at which new phases nucleate and grow within a parent phase. This process is fundamental to phase transformations, such as crystallization from a liquid or gas, precipitation from a solid solution, or the formation of a new solid phase during a solid-state reaction. Understanding nucleatiekinetiek is crucial for controlling the microstructure and properties of materials.
The nucleation process can be broadly divided into two categories: homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation. Homogeneous nucleation
The rate of nucleation is influenced by several factors, including temperature, the degree of supersaturation or
