Abstract
Crystallization kinetics of calcium tungstate from unstirred supersaturated solutions in sodium tungstate melts was studied by continuous cooling from initial crystallization temperature TO=1000° to 800°C to room temperature at cooling rates RT=0.67° to 3.3°C min−1. Crystals were examined by optical microscopy and analyzed by various methods. The main crystal growth was diffusion‐rate‐controlled. The final crystal growth was rate‐controlled by the development rate of excess solute concentration. Diffusion rate constant (kD) values were estimated. These values increased with cooling rate and initial crystallization temperatures but they are very much smaller than the rate constants for diffusion‐controlled growth of calcium tungstate from lithium chloride melts.Keywords
