It is often assumed in the conventional electrophoresis analysis that the liquid phase contains only one kind of each cation and anion. That analysis is extended to the case where the liquid phase contains multiple ionic species in this study so that the conditions considered are closer to reality. Using a dispersion of SiO2, particles, which is of a charge-regulated nature, as an example, where the dispersion pH is adjusted by HCl and NaOH, numerical simulation is conducted to examine the electrophoretic behaviors oldie particle under various conditions. We show that the presence of multiple ionic species is capable of yielding profound and interesting electrophoretic behaviors, which are justified by the experimental data in the literature. In addition. we show that two types of double-layer polarization (DLP) are present that have not been reported previously in the electrophoresis analyses. Type I DLP, which reduces the mobility of a particle, occurs inside the double layer, and type II DLP, which raises that mobility, occurs immediately outside the double layer.
