• Formation of row nuclei is visualized.• Stable nuclei can survive within 22-min annealing.• Unstable ones relax within 22-min annealing.
Pressure Quench
Combining rheology and synchrotron X-ray
• Shish formation is tracked during flow.• The shish precursors are formed during flow and further develop into
shish.• Formation times of shish precursors and shish both depend on the
flow conditions.
• The combined effect of nucleating agent and flow on the nucleation density can be assessed.
