Notes:
Particle deposition by diffusiophoresis and thermophoresis is described using the linearized Fickian multicomponent diffusion equations. For these cases, the diagonal component of the diffusivity matrix for the particle is expected to be much smaller than the other diagonal components. Intuitive arguments, dimensional analyses and the standard interfacial transport theories in multicomponent form suggest that the larger boundary layer due to the larger diffusivity component describes the transition between bulk and surface values for both components.
