Tóm tắt

Using the mean field Poisson–Boltzmann (PB) and the Ornstein–Zernike (OZ) integral equation theories, we have determined the macroions effective interactions and the structure of charged stabilized colloidal suspension for a large charge range of macroion and screening parameter values. The renormalized parameters are calculated by solving the PB equation written in the framework of the modified Jellium model. The structures have been determined by solving the OZ equation coupled with a self-consistent integral equation, which is related to the Verlet’s modified closure. Our results of the effective parameters are in good agreement with the experimental data, also the structure presents acceptable improvement compared to the Monte Carlo simulation data, against the HNC structure results, PACS: 61.20 Gy, 82.70 Dd, and 82.70 Kj.
