چکیده
We derive a formally simple approximate analytical solution to the Poisson-Boltzmann equation for the spherical system via a geometric mapping. Its regime of applicability in the parameter space of the spherical radius and the surface potential is determined, and its superiority over the linearized solution is demonstrated.

Dynamic electrophoretic mobility of a sphere in a spherical cavity.
Dynamic electrophoresis is a powerful analytical tool for the description of the surface properties of the charged entities in a concentrated dispersion. In our study the boundary effect on this dynamic phenomenon is investigated theoretically for the case, when the surface potential is low. In particular, the dynamic electrophoresis of a sphere in a spherical cavity is discussed as are the eff...
متن کاملSingle-particle thermal diffusion of charged colloids: double-layer theory in a temperature gradient.
The double-layer contribution to the single-particle thermal diffusion coefficient of charged, spherical colloids with arbitrary double-layer thickness is calculated and compared to experiments. The calculation is based on an extension of the Debye-Hückel theory for the double-layer structure that includes a small temperature gradient. There are three forces that constitute the total thermophor...
متن کاملLow-frequency dielectric response of charged oblate spheroidal particles immersed in an electrolyte.
We study the low-frequency polarization response of a surface-charged oblate spheroidal particle immersed in an electrolyte solution. Because the charged spheroid attracts counterions which form the electric double layer around the particle, using usual boundary conditions at the interface between the particle and electrolyte can be quite complicated and challenging. Hence, we generalize Fixman...
متن کاملElectric double layer for spherical particles in salt-free concentrated suspensions including ion size effects.
The equilibrium electric double layer (EDL) that surrounds colloidal particles is essential for the response of a suspension under a variety of static or alternating external fields. An ideal salt-free suspension is composed of charged colloidal particles and ionic countercharges released by the charging mechanism. Existing macroscopic theoretical models can be improved by incorporating differe...
متن کاملDouble layer polarization and non-linear electroosmosis in and around a charged permeable aggregate
We have studied the migration of a charged permeable aggregate in electrolyte under the influence of an axial electric field and pressure gradient. The migration of the positively charged aggregate leads to a deformation of the anionic cloud around it. The hydrodynamics of the aggregate is governed by the interaction of electroosmotic flow in and around the particle, hydrodynamic friction and e...
