Abstract

The mobilities of defined positive and negative ions in non-polar dielectric liquids are discussed by taking into account the structure of the liquid around the ions. Two main effects were found to influence the mobility: in the case of positive ions, electrostriction leads to the formation of a solid-like shell of bound atoms or molecules of the liquid around the positive ion; in the case of negative ions, the repulsive interaction between the lone electron and the electron shells of the atoms or molecules comprising the liquid has to be taken into account in addition to the electrostriction effect.
