Solution of the Percus-Yevick approximation for an n-component mixture of associating hard spheres in the multidensity formalism

Abstract

The analytical solution of Wertheim's associative Percus-Yevick approximation for an M-component mixture of associating hard spheres in the multidensity formalism is analysed. The general expressions for the Wertheim-Baxter factor correlation functions, partial structure factors and thermodynamic quantities are obtained.
