Analytical approximation formulae linking ζ potential and electrophoretic mobility have been derived for a variety of limiting conditions. In this paper we present a simplified derivation of an equation first established by Dukhin and his collaborators for a large spherical particle with a thin double layer. Although potentially a very useful expression it has been little used to date, partly because of the complicated nature of Dukhin's derivation and partly because of the lack of a reliable method of testing its validity. The expression compares very favourably with the computer calculations of O'Brien and White, provided κa is sufficiently large.

The sp2 rich amorphous carbons have a wide variety of microstructures ranging from flat sheetlike structures such as glassy carbon to highly curved materials having similar local ordering to the fullerenes. These differences are most apparent in the region of the graphite (0002) reflection of the energy filtered diffracted intensity obtained from these materials (Fig. 1). All these materials consist mainly of threefold coordinated atoms. This accounts for their similar appearance above 0.8 Å-1. The fullerene curves (b,c) show a string of peaks at distance scales corresponding to the packing of the large spherical and oblate molecules. The beam damaged C60 (c) shows an evolution to the sp2 amorphous carbons as the spherical structure is destroyed although the (220) reflection in fee fcc at 0.2 Å-1 does not disappear completely. This 0.2 Å-1 peak is present in the 1960 data of Kakinoki et. al. who grew films in a carbon arc under conditions similar to those needed to form fullerene rich soots.
