Abstract—The study of the recrystallization creep of sodium chloride crystals shows that, beginning with a
concentration of 10–2 M, the addition of urea to a solution noticeably decelerates the recrystallization creep of
NaCl. It is proven that the deceleration of the creep is due to the passage of the process from a diffusion regime
to a kinetic one, which is limited by the rate of salt dissolution.
