Considering the topology of semiempirical nucleation rate surfaces originate from lines describing the appropriate phase equilibria, there will be two nucleation rate surfaces that exist for the different physical states of the critical embryo phases that are formed near the triple point. Each rate surface is independently related to a nucleation channel and is described by individual equations for nucleation rates. Because of the differences in the sticking probability of vapor molecules when they collide with a physical surface (in this case, with the surface of the nucleation embryos) in the different phases, the growth rates of the different phase clusters will be different. As a result of this difference, one expects to find different sized particles for two cluster phases in the vicinity of the triple point for first order phase transitions. In the present study, particle size distributions were measured near glycerin triple point. A clearly bimodal size distribution was observed. This result suggests that there are two independent nucleation channels that exist near the triple point. This experimental system has the ability to discern particles produced through the two separate nucleation channels so that the nucleation rates can be measured for each channel.
