Abstract
A thermal diffusion cloud chamber was used to measure the critical sup ersaturations of bis(2-ethyl-hexyl)sebacate (DEHS) required for a rate of homogeneous nucleation of about 5 drops cm-3 s-1. The experiments were carried out in the 370-440 K temperature range with hydrogen and helium as inert gases.
