Abstract

We calculate, via the Debye–Huckel theory, the effect of ionic screening on the thermodynamic properties of an electrolyte confined topologically to an isotropic random fractal structure embedded in three dimensions. It is found that screening effects are generally important, even for low fractal dimensions. In many instances crossover effects occur, whereby with increasing ionic strength, a low dimension fractal is more stabilized by screening than a fractal of higher dimension.
