Abstract

The four diffusion coefficients for the ternary system polyacrylic acid (mol. weight 5000)-polyacrylic acid (mol. weight 115000)-water have been measured at 25°C and at one average polyelectrolytes concentration. The experimental values of main and cross terms have been briefly discussed. The large cross term D 12 in the system with water as solvent shows that, contrary to intuition, different molecular weight species do interact with each other.
