Abstract
WHEN optical methods are not available, reliable diffusion constants may be obtained by techniques depending on the quantitative determination of the solute concentration in the diffusate such as the porous disk method of Northrop and Anson1 (see also ref. 2). For these techniques a substance of known diffusion constant, established independently, is needed for calibration, which is a disadvantage.
