limiting conductivity

Generally, this phenomenon is quite weak but in certain materials or circumstances, it can become dominant effect limiting conductivity.

The mineral is full of microscopic pockets that suck in electrons, limiting conductivity and the ability to convert solar energy into electricity.

Moreover, Kohlrausch also found that the limiting conductivity of anions and cations are additive: the conductivity of a solution of a salt is equal to the sum of conductivity contributions from the cation and anion.

The standard molar volumes, the standard molar enthalpies of solution, and the limiting conductivities have been determined for potassium and tetrabutylammonium adamantylcarboxylates in water and heavy water, at 298.15 K. The temperature dependence of the volume and of the conductivity of the potassium salt has also been studied.
