title: The diffusion of fluoride with hexamethyldisiloxane.
abstract: Several acids, when saturated with hexamethyldisiloxane, induce the diffusion of fluoride at ambient temperatures. Observations with plant and soil suspensions which contain a mixture of complex fluorides including organically combined fluorine show that siliconed acids may not diffuse as much fluoride as does perchloric acid containing silver sulphate at 60 degrees.
