X31 fusion results at various pH conditions for SLB A at ρHA,200. (a) Simulations are able to fit experimental data by adjusting only kbend while keeping w = 3 and q = 1. (b, right axis and circles) The mean kbend values for pH 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, and 4.5 are 0.2, 0.05, 0.018, and 0.01 s−1, respectively, with standard deviation shown in error bars. (b, left axis and triangles) The mean R18 diffusivity values for pH 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, and 4.5 are 0.82, 0.66, 0.55, and 0.51 μm2/s, respectively, with standard deviation shown in error bars. Mobile fractions of R18 were close to 1 for all cases. Both R18 diffusivity and kbend decrease with increasing pH over this range.
