Cell Model Approaches for Predicting the Swelling and Mechanical Properties of Polyelectrolyte Gels
Jonas Landsgesell, Christian Holm
We present two successive mean-field approximations for describing the mechanical properties and the swelling equilibrium of polyelectrolyte gels in contact with a salt solution. T…

Modeling Gel Swelling Equilibrium in Mean-Field: From explicit Models to Poisson-Boltzmann
Jonas Landsgesell, David Sean, Patrick Kreissl +2
We develop a double mean-field theory for charged macrogels immersed in electrolyte solutions in the spirit of the cell model approach. We first demonstrate that the equilibrium sa…
