Calculated permeation coefficients
Permeation coefficients can be calculated from (1) and (2) assuming the temperature
coefficient of D is 2% per “C and that D’ = Du, where u is the solubility coefficient in
milliliters gas (STPD) dissolved per milliliter of water at a partial pressure of 1 atm
(Dittmer and Grebe, 1958).
