Density-functional study of interfacial properties of colloid-polymer mixtures.

Interfacial properties of colloid-polymer mixtures are examined within an effective one-component representation, where the polymer degrees of freedom are traced out, leaving a fluid of colloidal particles interacting via polymer-induced depletion forces. Restriction is made to zero-, one-, and two-...
