Theory of self-coacervation in semi-dilute and concentrated zwitterionic polymer solutions
Yu. A. Budkov, P. E. Brandyshev, N. N. Kalikin
Based on the random phase approximation, we develop a molecular theory of self-coacervation in zwitterionic polymer solutions. We show that the interplay between the volume interac…
Macroscopic forces in inhomogeneous polyelectrolyte solutions
Yury Budkov, Nikolai Kalikin
In this paper, we present a self-consistent field theory of macroscopic forces in spatially inhomogeneous flexible chain polyelectrolyte solutions. We derive an analytical expressi…
Electrosorption-induced deformation of a porous electrode with non-convex pore geometry in electrolyte solutions: a theoretical study
A. L. Kolesnikov, D. A. Mazur, Yu. A. Budkov
Porous carbon is well known as a good candidate for the development of electrochemical double-layer capacitors. Predominantly, many conventional carbons are microporous and often w…
Modified Poisson-Boltzmann equations and macroscopic forces in inhomogeneous ionic fluids
Yu. A. Budkov, A. L. Kolesnikov
We propose a field-theoretical approach based on the thermodynamic perturbation theory and within it derive a grand thermodynamic potential of the inhomogeneous ionic fluid as a fu…
