Abstract:
Although we and others have developed equations to analyze for some indefinite self-associations that might be encountered, it is felt in some cases that these models, known as the sequential, equal equilibrium constant (SEK) models, might overestimate the size of aggregates encountered at higher solute concentrations. Thus, Garland and Christian proposed two attenuated equilibrium constant (AK) models that might overcome this problem. Their methods were restricted to ideal solutions and to osmometric procedures. We have removed these restrictions, and we have developed equations for analyzing four AK models that might be encountered. Various tests to aid in distinguishing these models are presented. These procedures have been tested with two simulated examples of a Type III AK indefinite self-association.
