Transformation of crystalline dispersions

In this chapter we concentrate on applications of thermal analysis in basic and applied research, leading to better understanding of the processes involved in the formation and transformation of crystalline dispersions both from electrolyte solutions and in confined spaces such as emulsions and microemulsions. 

Fiiredi-Milhofer (Israel), in Chapter 11, provides a broad overview of the role of thermal analysis techniques in basic and applied studies of the formation and transformation of crystalline dispersions. Crystalline disperisons are formed by a succession of some of the following precipitation processes nucleation, crystal growth, flocculation, Ostwald ripening, and/or phase tfansformation. After a brief elaboration of the theories underlying these processes, a review is given of experimental studies on the formation and transformation of ionic precipitates from bulk electrolyte solutions.
