A much better way is to follow the method of Hancock and Sharp ( 1948). If one can measure x, the amount formed in time, t, then the... 

The most reliable way to find n is to use the method of Sharp and Hancock. This consists of taking logarithms of the Avrami-Erofe ev equation, to give... 

The above equations summarize the three (3) diffusion mechanisms, one of which usually predominates in any given case (see 3.1.74.). But these equations contain quantities that are hard to measure, or even estimate. A much better way is to follow the method of Hancock and Sharp ( 1938). If one can measure x, the amount of reactant formed in time, t, then the following equation applies ...
