From the estimated diffusion rate‐constants ( k D1 ) of strontium tungstate crystal growth from sodium tungstate melts in platinum crucibles, energy (E), enthalpy (Δ H a ), entropy (Δ S a ) and free‐energy (Δ G a ) of activation and the pre‐exponential factor ( k 0 ) for the process were estimated using an ordinary Arrhenius equation k Dl = k 0 e − E/RT . These thermodynamic parameters were virtually unaffected by the changes in crystallization temperatures ( T 0 ) and cooling rates ( R ) T . The distance ( r 12 ), between a diffusing species and its host necesary for a successful diffusion, increased with T 0 and T T but there was no direct correlation.
