Mean spherical approximation for an arbitrary mixture of ions with surface adhesion in a neutralizing background

The mean spherical approximation for a multicomponent mixture of charged hard spheres with sticky interactions in a uniform neutralizing background is solved analytically. When the sticky parameters are of the form Λij∼wiwj±vivj, then the correlation functions and the excess thermodynamics properties are explicitly expressed through a single parameter Γ, which can be obtained by solving an algebraic equation. In the one-component case, an explicit expression for the parameter Γ is obtained.
