Nucleation and Growth

1WS20021 Nucleation and Growth GoalUnderstand the basic thermodynamics behind the nucleationand Growth processes ReferencesHandoutCh. 8, Intro. to Ceramics by Kingery, Bowen and UhlmannMost books on glasses and glass-ceramics HomeworkNone2WS20022 Phase Transformations Considered as a transformation of a homogeneous solution to a mixtureof two phases For a stable solution, Gmix is less than zero. In other words, the solutionis more stable than the individual components Gmix is composed of entropic (-T Smix) and enthalpic ( Hmix) parts Consider1. Hmix less than zero: stable solution2. Hmix = zero (ideal solution), stable solution due to entropic 3. Hmix slightly greater than zero: stable solution entropy dominates4.

Nucleation • Consider the nucleation of a new phase at a temperature T The transition temperature (T) is below that predicted by thermodynamics when surface or volume are not considered • We can estimate the free energy change as a function of the radius of the nuclei from the volume and surface terms • When r is small, surface dominates
