Experimental data on the maximum supercooling Delta T(max), a measure of metastable zone width, for solutions saturated at a temperature To, as a function of cooling rate R are analyzed, for some solute-solvent systems chosen as examples, using Nyvlt's semiempirical approach and a new approach based on the classical theory of three-dimensional nucleation combined with the formation of n-sized embryos from monomers according to the law of mass action. Instead of a linear relation between ln(Delta T(max)) and InR of the Nyvlt's approach, the new approach predicts a linear dependence of (T(0)/Delta T(max))(2) on InR with slope F, and intercept F. The quantity F(1)/F is independent of saturation temperature To, characteristic of a solute-solvent and is associated with the growth of the stable three-dimensional nuclei to visible entities. The value of F, is determined by thermodynamic and solvation processes, while that of F is governed by thermodynamic and kinetic parameters as well as processes associated with solvation of solute ions/molecules and their transport in the solution. Limitations of Nyvlt's approach and advantages of the new approach in terms of its physical basis are exposed. It is pointed out that the new approach can also be extended to explain the value of metastable zone width by the isothermal method and to explain the effect of saturation temperature and impurities on metastable zone width.
