Matano

An experimental technique for die determination of Dchem in a binary alloy system in which die diffusion coefficient is a function of composition was originally developed by Matano (1932), based on a mathematical development...

We now have to make the definition of x more explicit and decide where to locate the origin (the Matano interface) for the conservation condition above to hold. In the laboratory, one would use an arbitrary coordinate X, such as the distance to one end of the experimental device, then... 

X ( im) is the distance to the interface. Expression for I(X) is given in the text. Diffusion coefficient 3>(cm2s 1) calculated by the Matano method. 

Figure 8.12 The Boltzmann-Matano technique. Initially, concentration is C0 to the left of the initial interface located at x0, C, to the right. The hatched areas between C0 and C, must be equal, which defines the position of the Matano interface. The framed area represents the numerator of equation (8.4.9). The diffusion coefficient is computed from the same equation.
