Abstract
An integral equation theory has been used as the basis for studying the structure of dispersions containing charged colloidal particles: globular protein molecules with a nonzero dipole moment, a polyelectrolyte and a low-molecular salt. It is demonstrated that there is an effective attraction between charged colloidal particles, which increases in the presence of charged polymer chains. The influence of the length of polyelectrolyte chains and of salt concentration on the partial structure factor of colloidal particles was studied.
