Various combinations of the driving force and moving phase determine various electrokinetic effects. Following "Fundamentals of Interface and Colloid Science" by Lyklema (1995), the complete family of electrokinetic phenomena includes:
| Electrokinetic Phoenomena | Description of Event |
|---|---|
| Electrophoresis | as motion of particles under influence of electric field |
| Electro-osmosis | as motion of liquid in porous body under influence of electric field |
| Diffusiophoresis | as motion of particles under influence of a chemical potential gradient |
| Capillary Osmosis | as motion of liquid in porous body under influence of the chemical potential gradient |
| Streaming Potential / Current | as either electric potential or current generated by fluid moving through porous body, or relative to flat surface |
| Colloid Vibration Current | as electric current generated by particles moving in fluid under influence of ultrasound |
| Electric Sonic Amplitude | as ultrasound generated by colloidal particles in oscillating electric field. |

Famous quotes containing the word see:
“To see ourselves as others see us can be eye-opening. To see others as sharing a nature with ourselves is the merest decency. But it is from the far more difficult achievement of seeing ourselves amongst others, as a local example of the forms human life has locally taken, a case among cases, a world among worlds, that the largeness of mind, without which objectivity is self- congratulation and tolerance a sham, comes.”
—Clifford Geertz (b. 1926)
