Growth, Nucleation Kinetics and Structural Studies on L-Valine Piperazinium Single Crystals
A single crystal of L-valine piperazinium was grown by slow growth technique. Structural studies confirm the monoclinic structure with space group P21. The solubility curve showing high soluble in water and peak shows positive solubility nature. A tiny nucleation formed at 10 ºC for room temperature process and it gradually increasing with respect process temperature. Induction period revels that time period for nucleation at constant temperature and it absorbed that in (10 ºC) 500 s for room temperature. The calculated interfacial tension values are greater than one order other amino acid based piperazinium. By using growth parameters bulk L-valine piperazinium crystal were harvested and single crystal XRD confirms that formation of L-valine piperazinium crystals.
