Electric-potential-assisted crystallisation of L-isoleucine: a study of nucleation kinetics and its associated parameters

The potential of producing L-isoleucine crystals with the aid of electric potential and its effect on the nucleation kinetics of L-isoleucine were probed using polythermal and isothermal crystallisation techniques, assisted with 5 V, 9 V, and 20 V electric potentials. The polythermal experiments wer...
