Crystal growth mechanisms of the (010) face of alpha-lactose monohydrate crystals

The growth rates of the (010) face of a-lactose monohydrate crystals were measured at 30, 40 and 50 1C in the relative supersaturation range 0.55?2.33 in aqueous solutions. The mechanisms of growth were investigated. Spiral growth was found to be the mechanism of growth up to a critical relativesupe...
