Abstract The approximate expressions have been obtained to calculate the electrical double layer energy and force between two spherical colloidal particles based on the improved Derjaguin approximation. Results for identical spheres interacting under constant surface potential, constant surface charge are given. Comparison of present results with numerical results calculated by Carnie and Chan is made. The expressions are found to work quite well for the constant surface potential case, and for the constant charge case, we make correction for the expressions. The results given are satisfactory providedkh≧0.4.
