The D ~ T/τ is valid with ξ =τ^(-1).01 for T ≤ Txbut in a fractional form for T Tx. The Stokes–Einstein relation D ~ T/η is satisfied below Tx = 620 K but in a fractional form above Tx. We propose that the breakdown of D ~ T/η may result from the system entering into the super critical region, the fractional forms of D ~τ^(-1)τand D ~ T/τ are due to the disruption of the hydration shell and the local tetrahedral structure as well as the increase of the shear viscosity.展开更多
