Nucleation kinetics of high linoleic and high oleic polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) mixtures were investigated during melt crystallization by means of a focused beam reflectance measurement (FBRM) sensor. Samples were analyzed thermally and chemically in the differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and gas chromatograph (GC), respectively. Investigations showed that a high oleic content in the PUFA mixtures lead to higher induction times, τ i . Unlike previous investigations, a clear relation between τ i and cooling rates was established: τ i increases with increasing cooling rates and decreasing supercooling. Activation energies of nucleation, ΔG c ′, were determined by means of the Fisher Turnbull equation wherein ΔG c ′ decreases exponentially with increasing supercooling. Investigations and further evaluations conclude that while the plot establishes the effect of supercooling on ΔG c ′, it does not incorporate the effects of molecular diffusion or the cooling rate. Hence, 3D modeling was performed to visualize the combined effects of cooling rate and supercooling on induction time.
