An analytical solution of the two-density Ornstein-Zernike equation closed by the associative Percus-Yevick approximation for the multicomponent mixture of dimerizing adhesive hard spheres (DAHS) is obtained in closed form. This is the generalization of the previous solution for the one-component DA

✦ Synopsis
An analytical solution of Wertheim's associative Percus-Yevick ( APY) approximation for the n-component mixture of dimerizing hard spheres is presented. The solution is illustrated by the numerical results obtained for the two-component mixture with associative interaction only between particles of a different sort. In the limiting case of complete dimerization the results of the APY approximation are in good agreement with the predictions of the Monte Carlo simulation performed for the corresponding system of heteronuclear hard dumbbells. In this limit the present solution can be used as a simple analytical approach in the description of the system of heteronuclear hard dumbbells and their mixtures.

Macromolecules in solution can have large effects on the properties of other solutes through nonideal excluded-volume (crowding) interactions. Minton [ ( 1983 ) Mol. Cell. Biochem. 55, 119-1401 has calculated such effects by treating the macromolecules as a hard-sphere fluid in a background of an in
