Here, a biocolloid is mimicked by a rigid core covered by a negatively charged, ion-penetrable membrane. The results of simulation reveal that the following conditions lead to a faster rate of deposition: (1) thicker membrane (constant total amount of fixed charge); (2) lower fixed charge density; (3) smaller valence of the cations in the liquid phase; (4) lower surface potential of the collector surface.Deposition of biocolloids on a charged collector surface: An ion-penetrable membrane modeljournal article10.1021/la001424+2-s2.0-0035967659https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-0035967659&doi=10.1021%2fla001424%2b&partnerID=40&md5=5c1671935dfff5c192621b7a3c59f81b
