Özet

The width of metastable zone of unseeded potassium alum solutions was determined for different conditions and in the presence of additives. The measurements were taken at three different cooling rates and for three different saturation temperatures at a cooling rate of 10 K/h by means of an ultrasonic measuring technique. The influence of Cr3+, Cu2+, and Mg2+ ions on the width of metastable zone of a potassium alum solution was investigated at a cooling rate of 5 K/h. The influence of Mg2+ ions on the width of metastable zone of potassium chloride solutions was also investigated at a cooling rate of 10 K/h. Cr3+, Cu2+, and Mg2+ ions show both enlargement and suppression effects on the width of metastable zone of potassium alum and potassium chloride solutions depending on their concentrations. Cr3+, Cu2+, and Mg2+ ions also change-the saturation temperature of potassium alum solutions depending on their concentrations.
