Abstract
⺠Self diffusivity of water in biopolymer matrices can be predicted using free volume theory. ⺠Self diffusivity of biopolymers in solution is predicted using generalised Stokes-Einstein relation. ⺠The Fickian mutual diffusivity can be linked to the self diffusivities via the Darken relation. ⺠Moisture diffusion in dense biopolymer and sugar matrices is showing universal behaviour.
