Subdiffusive reaction front in the enamel caries process

Starting with the equation describing subdiffusion associated with chemical reactions for one-static reactant, we show that the reaction front X f evolves in time as x f ~ t α/2 with α < 1. The equation is applied to the carious lesion which is caused by the chemical reactions of diffusing acid m...
