Supersaturation - PowerPoint PPT Presentation


Understanding Crystallization Process: Key Steps and Factors

Crystallization is a process where material deposits from a supersaturated solution, forming microcrystals that grow into larger crystals. Nucleation and growth are essential steps, with supersaturation driving crystal formation. Factors like temperature and seeding influence the process, leading to
