Electrokinetic equations for electrophoresis of a soft particle (that is, a hard particle covered with a layer of polyelectrolytes) have been solved previously under the conditions that the net force acting on the soft particle as a whole (the particle core plus the polyelectrolyte layer) must be ze
An approximate analytic expression for the electrophoretic mobility of a spherical colloidal particle in a symmetrical electrolyte solution is obtained. This mobility expression, which is correct to the order of the third power of the ΞΆ-potential of the particle, considerably improves Henry's mobili
