Either of two processes by which small ions disappear.
The first of these processes is the union of a small ion and a neutral Aitken nucleus to form a new large ion; the second is the neutralization of a large ion by the small ion. The rate at which these processes occur is expressed by the magnitude of the combination coefficient for each process.
