Beschreibung:
<jats:p>Using the Rogers-Young (RY) integral equation scheme for the static structure factor combined with the one-phase Hansen-Verlet (HV) freezing rule, we study the equilibrium structure and two-parameter freezing lines of colloidal particles with Yukawa-type pair interactions representing charge-stabilized silica spheres suspended in dimethylformamide (DMF). Results are presented for a vast range of concentrations, salinities and effective charges covering particles with masked excluded-volume interactions. The freezing lines were obtained for the low-charge and high-charge solutions of the static structure factor, for various two-parameter sets of experimentally accessible system parameters. All RY-HV based freezing lines can be mapped on a universal fluid-solid coexistence line in good agreement with computer simulation predictions. The RY-HV calculations extend the freezing lines obtained in earlier simulations to a broader parameter range. The experimentally observed fluid-bcc-fluid reentrant transition of charged silica spheres in DMF can be explained using the freezing lines obtained in this work.</jats:p>
