The driving force for crystallization in a supersaturated solution is the difference in chemical potential,, between a supersaturated solution and a saturatedsolution, and is given by (for ideal solutions):sol ¼RgT:ln; ð2ÞwhereRg is the universal gas constant and Tis thetemperature. It should be noted that unless the phasebehavior of the many TAG families usually present in atypical fat is known and supports it, making anassumption of ideal solution behavior is not necessarilyvalid.Relative supercooling refers to the degree to which thesample has been cooled,T, with respect to the meltingtemperature,TM, of the crystallized sample and is givenby:T¼ðTTMÞ: ð3ÞSupercooling is usually required for the crystallizationof one or more components from a melt; as opposed toa solution. The supercooling of the sample also providesa thermodynamic driving force for the formation ofnuclei, and a chemical potential that drives nucleationmay be defined as:melt¼HTMTTM; ð4ÞwhereHis the enthalpy of fusion.Nucleation (via the chemical potentials provided byeither supercooling, supersaturation, or a combination)occurs via bimolecular reactions which lead to the formation of ordered domains (Kloek, 1998). Beyond acertain size, further addition of molecules to suchordered domains result in a decrease in the Gibbs freeenergy of the system, and therefore when such ordereddomains grow beyond a critical size,r , a nucleus isformed. As described by Kloek (1998)and Lyklema(1991), the classical nucleation theory described byVolmer (1939)has a number of shortcomings. Firstly, amacroscopic model is applied to the microscopicordered domains. Furthermore, Gibbs free energychanges generated from equilibrium thermodynamics isused in the classical theory as a measure of the activation Gibbs energy; which is strictly a kinetic parameter.Regardless, the classical nucleation theory is used in thelipid area extensively, and is therefore reproduced here.The Gibbs free energy change due to the formation ofan ordered domain is given by:G¼GSSþGVV; ð5ÞwhereGSis the change in the surface free energy (dueto surface tension),GVis the change in free energy ofthe system per unit volume (due to the enthalpy offusion), andVis the volume of the ordered domain.G¼; ð6Þwhereis the surface energy andSis the surface area ofthe ordered domain. Therefore, for an ordered domainconsidered spherical, with radiusr:GSS¼4r2; ð7ÞS¼4r2andV¼43r3: ð8ÞTherefore,G¼4r2þ43r3GV: ð9ÞFor there to be a net decrease in the free energy of thesystem, the ordered domain must attain a critical size ofr , where Gis maximum and is referred to as theactivation energy of nucleation, G (as mentionedbefore, this is a kinetic parameter). One can calculatethis value ofr by differentiatingEq. (9)with respect tor, and equating to zero:8r 3þ4r 4GV¼0; ð10Þtherefore4r 32þr GV ½ ¼0; ð11Þandr ¼2GV: ð1
