Abstract
This paper discusses the heterogeneous nucleation of solidification, treating the fundamental process as taking place by adsorption on the surface of the heterogeneous nucleant. A theoretical framework for adsorption and nucleation catalysis is described, and some related experimental results are discussed.This publication has 21 references indexed in Scilit:
