ABSTRACT

From the solution of the Poisson-Boltzmann equation for the spherical cell model of a fullerene electrolyte solution, the contributions of the fullerene macroion and counterions to the electrostatic energy of the solution are calculated. Computations are made for solutions containing mixtures of counterions differing in size and charge. The results are presented as functions of the macroion concentration and mole fractions of the counterions.
