In chemistry , electro-osmotic flow ( EOF , hyphen optional; synonymous with electro-osmosis or electro-endosmosis ) is the motion of liquid induced by an applied potential across a porous material , capillary tube , membrane , microchannel , or any other fluid conduit. Because electro- osmotic velocities are independent of conduit size, as long as the electrical double layer is much smaller than the characteristic length scale of the channel, electro-osmotic flow will have little effect. Electro-osmotic flow is most significant when in small channels, and is an essential component in chemical separation techniques, notably capillary electrophoresis . Electro-osmotic flow can occur in natural unfiltered water, as well as buffered solutions.
