Abstract
A thermodynamic theory of size dependent deliquescence of nanoparticles was presented. The free energy surfaces traversed by the path of the deliquescing system were calculated. The measurements on small crystals were performed using a tandem differential mobility analyzer. The relation of the theory to heterogeneous nucleation was established. Results showed that the equilibrium coexistence of core and solution was not possible in the system.
