Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book uncovers the mysteries of supercooling, a technique that allows liquids to remain liquid well below their freezing point. The author investigates the use of this process in capillary tubes, exploring the factors that influence the degree of supercooling achievable. The research presented builds on the foundations laid by Sorby, Van der Mensbrugghe, and Tammann, who established the connection between supercooling, crystallization, and the dynamics of crystal formation. The findings challenge the commonly held assumption that the number of crystal nuclei formed is proportional to the volume of the liquid. Instead, the experiments reveal a complex relationship between the two, with the number of nuclei varying based on the temperature and the inherent properties of the liquid. The book provides a valuable resource for those interested in the physics and chemistry of liquids and crystallization, offering insights into the behavior of matter under controlled conditions. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
