The positron annihilation lifetime and ultrasonic velocity in aqueous ethylene glycol solutions were measured. A comparison between the concen­tration and temperature dependences of the above parameters suggests that there is a competition of hydrophobic (interstitial) and hydrophylic (substi­tutional) hydration.
