Table 1.

Fickian and non-Fickian diffusion with respect to n values.

Value of n Diffusion Type
≤0.5 Fickian diffusion
=0.5 The drug diffuses and releases out following the Fickian diffusion
>0.5 Anomalous or non-Fickian type drug diffusion
≥1 Comprehensively non-Fickian one or the Case II release kinetics is functioning
