This paper presents an evaluation of the influence of a static magnetic field of moderate intensity on the process of recrystallization of a supersaturated solution of sucrose with impurities. In the work is designed and executed experiments determining the influence of a static magnetic field on the nucleation rate and the morphology of microcrystals of sucrose. It characterizes the magnetic conditioning device used in the tests, with values of average flux density of approximately 2774 and 3376 Gauss. The application states that the magnetic field in the range of values used causes a 50% delay in the process of recrystallization of sucrose in an impure solution, favoring a better uniformity and regularity in the surface and edges of the microcrystals.

Palabras clave : crystallization; magnetic field; sucrose.
