The Dependence of Effective Distribution Coefficient on Growth Rate and Mass Transfer Coefficient for P-Xylene in Solid-Layer Melt Crystallization

The solid-layer growth kinetics and resulting crystal purity for a well-mixed <i>p</i>-xylene (PX) melt with impurity of <i>o</i>-xylene (OX) or ethylbenzene (EB) were studied in this work at various cooling temperatures. A correlation based on the energy balance was adopted...
