✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Aqueous supersaturated solutions of Calcium Sulphate Dihydrate (Gypsum) have been magnetically treated by passing the former at high velocities through fields of permanent magnets and also using the “Polar Water Conditioner”. No effects have been observed on either the nucleation or the growth process, at least up to magnetic field intensities of 16 KOe and solution velocities of about 170 cm/sec. Possible reasons have been given for this behaviour and for observations of other authors who have claimed positive results.
