Notes:
This work investigates the thermodynamically based assumption that diffusion at binodal states of unstable fluid systems vanishes. It is shown experimentally that a scaling law, which describes the fall in diffusion near critical points, may also be applied in an extended form to its abatement at the limits of solubility. These results may profoundly affect the modelling of mass transfer between phases whose bulks exhibit states of saturation.
