Temperature self-diffusion coefficient

The ESR spectrum of the pyridazine radical anion, generated by the action of sodium or potassium, has been reported, and oxidation of 6-hydroxypyridazin-3(2//)-one with cerium(IV) sulfate in sulfuric acid results in an intense ESR spectrum (79TL2821). The self-diffusion coefficient and activation energy, the half-wave potential (-2.16 eV) magnetic susceptibility and room temperature fluorescence in-solution (Amax = 23 800cm life time 2.6 X 10 s) are reported. 

Following the general trend of looldng for a molecular description of the properties of matter, self-diffusion in liquids has become a key quantity for interpretation and modeling of transport in liquids [5]. Self-diffusion coefficients can be combined with other data, such as viscosities, electrical conductivities, densities, etc., in order to evaluate and improve solvodynamic models such as the Stokes-Einstein type [6-9]. From temperature-dependent measurements, activation energies can be calculated by the Arrhenius or the Vogel-Tamman-Fulcher equation (VTF), in order to evaluate models that treat the diffusion process similarly to diffusion in the solid state with jump or hole models [1, 2, 7].

Figure 9 Chain center of mass self-diffusion coefficient for the bead-spring model as a function of temperature (open circles). The full line is a fit with the Vogel-Fulcher law in Eq. [3]. The dashed and dotted lines are two fits with a power-law divergence at the mode-coupling critical temperature.

The bulk melting temperature of An is indicated by the double arrow as (oo). The solid curve (right-hand side axis) is a calculated An self-diffusion coefficient. (From Ref. 146.)...

Experiments snch as the one illnstrated in Fignre 4.38 not only give us self-diffusion coefficients for certain snbstances, bnt as the temperatnre of the experiment is varied, they give us the temperature dependence of the process and a measurement of the activation energy barrier to diffnsion. Diffusion in solid systems, then, can be modeled as an activated process that is, an Arrhenius-type relationship can be written in which an activation energy, Ea, and temperatnre dependence are incorporated, along with a preexponential factor. Do, sometimes called ht frequency factor ... 

Wool and O Connor [33] stated that the self-diffusion coefficient should follow a Williams-Landel-Ferry (WLF) temperature dependence providing that the mode of failure remains the same between samples healed at different temperatures between Tg and Tg + 100°C. Using a reference temperature of 196°C (469 K), the WLF relationship for PI700 polysulfone can be written as follows [38] ...
