✦ Synopsis

The dynamic electrophoretic mobility of a pair of nearby spherical particles is analyzed in the case when the thickness of the electrical double layer around each particle is comparable to the particle radius. By means of an integral reciprocal relation, a formal expression is obtained for the force and torque on N spheres subject to an oscillating electric field which may be spatially varying. Upon linearizing in the surface potential, this expression is shown to depend upon a set of purely hydrodynamic problems involving N neutral spheres, the calculation of the electric field around N neutral spheres, and the equilibrium charge distribution around N charged spheres. In the case of a single particle, the known analytic formula for the dynamic mobility is recovered. For a pair of identical particles, the dynamic mobility is calculated numerically, using known solutions to the required subproblems. An analytical expression for the mobility of a pair of widely separated spheres is also obtained by a method of reflections, and this is in excellent agreement with the numerical results outside the range of double layer overlap.

A model is developed to simultaneously account for both a nonuniform zeta potential \((\xi)\) on the surface and polarization of the double layer in computing the electrophoretic motion of a spherical particle. The double layer is assumed thin \((\kappa R \gg 1\) where \(\kappa\) is the Debye parame
