Abstract
Metastable zonewidth and induction period measurements on ZTS and ZTSP crystals are presented. The effect of pH on the solubility, metastable zonewidth and induction period has been studied. The effect of substitution of phosphate on the nucleation parameters has been presented. The interfacial energy for pure and phosphate mixed ZTS solutions at 30°C has also been estimated. There is a significant variation in the induction period and interfacial energy due to decrease in solution pH and phosphate substitution.
