Abstract Mutual diffusion coefficients were measured as a function of temperature above the 30°C plait point of the water + 2-propanol + cyclohexane system using a Gouy interferometer and a new temperature-jump procedure. The four independent diffusion coefficients were found to decrease rapidly along the constant plait-point line as the temperature approached the consolute or plait temperature. Effective critical exponents were found to be 0.55 for the individual diffusion coefficients and 1.31 for the determinant of the diffusion coefficient matrix. The measured diffusion coefficients satisfy all stability requirements, although cross diffusion coefficients were found to be as large as main diffusion coefficients and a negative value was obtained for the water main diffusion coefficient in the component representation utilized in this work.
