Abstract

The temperature dependence of the water self‐diffusion coefficients (D), as well as those of low‐ and high‐field (stationary and time‐dependent) specific conductivities (K), have been determined in the percolation regime of ternary mixtures of water, AOT, and oil. For the first time a pronounced similarity in the behavior of D and κ was detected giving instructive hints about the large variations in the specific conductivities of these systems. Results from kinetic and stationary experiments are consistent with a network‐structure model of micro phases in the percolation regime in which the micro phases retain their discrete character.
