Simple approximate expressions for electrical double-layer interaction at constant moderate potentials
Simple yet accurate expressions for the electrical double-layer interaction force and energy between the particles that hold for a wide range of surface potential is required in the modeling, simulation, and optimization of many processes employed in industry. In this paper, simple approximate expressions for the interaction are obtained based on the asymptotic results and the numerical solution to the Poisson-Boltzmann equation for identical parallel plates with constant surface potential up to 180/z(i) mV at 25 degrees C, and the Dejaguin approximation. Within the moderate surface potential range, the semianalytical expressions agree well with the exact numerical results and are convenient to use for the purpose of process modeling and simulation.
