Abstract

The freezing potential for NH3 and NaCl solutions is studied with the experiments being performed at approximately constant freezing rates. The results permit discussion of the transitory and stationary features of the phenomenon. For NH4 solutions, the stationary freezing potential is studied as a function of the growth rate and of the concentration of the solutions. Measurements were also made of the segregation factors.
