Conclusions Our studies of size mismatch effects on the transport properties of Cu-Sb at 1190K and Cu-Sn at 1400K have led to the following submissions: The size mismatch is either solely or at least majorly responsible for the asymmetry and shaping of the asymmetry in each of the two alloys.

It is evident that density exhibits almost increase with increasing concentration of anionic-rich (SDS-DTAB) and cationic-rich (DTAB-SDS) solutions as shown in Figs 1A and 1B.
