Abstract
The Epstein-Paskin criterion is examined by reference to a survey of all published data for electrotransport in alloys. The examination supports the general validity of the suggestion that ionic species of highest electron-scattering cross-section are preferentially transported to the anode and, except for transition metals, that the melting point resistivities of the liquid components provide a satisfactory parameter for the scattering cross-sections. It is suggested that the criterion is relevant to electrotransport in solid as well as liquid alloys.
