ABSTRACT

In the last years, the diffusion Coimbra group, headed by Prof. Lobo, has been particularly dedicated to the study of mutual diffusion behavior of binary, ternary, and quaternary solutions [1-19], involving electrolytes and non-electrolytes, helping to go deeply in the understanding of their structure, and aiming at practical applications in fields as diverse as corrosion studies occurring in biological systems or therapeutic uses. In fact, the scarcity of diffusion coefficients data in the scientific literature, due to the difficulty of their accurate experimental measurement and impracticability of their determination by theoretical procedures, allied to their industrial and research need, well justify our efforts in accurate measurements of such transport property.
