A simple equation for description of solute release II. Fickian and anomalous release from swellable devices

TL;DR: In this paper, an exponential relation M t /M ∞ = kt n may be used to describe the Fickian and non-Fickian release behavior of release systems which are prepared by incorporation of a drug in a hydrophilic, initially glassy polymer.
