This option is used to define the solubility for a material diffusing through a base material. It must be used in conjunction with the *DIFFUSIVITY option.

Type: Model data

Set this parameter equal to the number of field variable dependencies included in the definition of the solubility. If this parameter is omitted, it is assumed that the solubility is constant or that it depends only on temperature. See “Specifying field variable dependence” in “Material data definition,” Section 21.1.2 of the Abaqus Analysis User's Guide, for more information.
First line:
Solubility. (Units of PLF–1/2.)
Temperature, .
First field variable.
Second field variable.
Etc., up to six field variables.
Subsequent lines (only needed if the DEPENDENCIES parameter has a value greater than six):
Seventh field variable.
Etc., up to eight field variables per line.
Repeat this set of data lines as often as necessary to define the solubility as a function of temperature and other predefined field variables.
