Abstract Three series expansions are examined for use in extracting ternary diffusion coefficients from Rayleigh interferometric data for free diffusion experiments. Convergence comparisons show that, providing enough terms are used, two of the three are suitable, including one used earlier by Albright and Sherrill. A new simpler analysis, using only linear least squares, has been applied to simulated and real data with good results. Advantages and disadvantages of series methods are compared to a direct non-linear least squares analysis.
