A Method for Estimating Transport Properties of Concentrated Electrolytes from Self-Diffusion Data
A theoretical method is introduced that calculates the electrolyte-transport properties using Onsager-Stefan-Maxwell (OSM) theory (concentrated-solution theory) and the generalized-Darken relation. OSM theory is used to relate binary diffusivities to the transport properties of the electrolyte, including transference number, ionic conductivity, and Fickian diffusivity. The generalized-Darken relation is proposed to calculate the binary diffusivities of multicomponent systems from self-diffusivities. Finally, an example is demonstrated to show the details of how this method can be used to estimate transport properties. The calculated properties were reasonably close to the previously reported experimental values. (C) The Author(s) 2016. Published by ECS.
