Electrophoretic mobility

Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-003783

The velocity of a charged particle or molecule in an electric field, divided by the strength of that electric field. It quantifies how quickly a substance moves through a medium under the influence of an electrical potential. This property is expressed in units of (cm^2)/(V·s).
