Abstract
The experimental and theoretical investigations of the nucleation processes of the calcium tartrate crystals in gel are presented in this paper. It has been shown experimentally that the changing of the acidity of the crystallogenetic media strongly influences the depth of the first crystals arising in gel, as well as on the crystals number and the mean mass of one crystal. The acidity changing was done by proton introduction into the gel formed by means of the additional solution (impregnation) or by means of the creation of proper acidity of maternal calcium chloride solution.
The theoretical description of this phenomena needs the assumption of the equivalence condition. The equivalence means that the concentration of crystalβforming reagents can't differ very much.

The induction period of urea in methanol has been measured experimentally by the visual observation method. The induction period, which is inversely proportional to the nucleation rate, has been used to estimate the interfacial tension between the urea crystal and the methanol solution and hence the
This paper deals with homogeneous and heterogeneous primary nucleation and the atomistic model of heterogeneous primary and secondary nucleation. Three aspects of crystal growth mechanisms will be taken into account: growth by two-dimensional nucleation, the so-called birth and spread model, spiral
## Abstract Nucleation parameters such as radius of critical nucleus, critical free energy change and interfacial tension were evaluated for Sulphanilic acid (SAA) single crystals. Metastable zone width and induction period values were determined to optimize the growth parameters. The interfacial t
