مستخلص: We consider a binary mixture of chemically active particles that produce or consume solute molecules and that interact with each other through the long-range concentration fields they generate. We analytically calculate the effective phoretic mobility of these particles when the mixture is submitted to a constant, external concentration gradient, at leading order in the overall concentration. Relying on an analogy with the modeling of strong electrolytes, we show that the effective phoretic mobility decays with the square root of the concentration: our result is, therefore, a nonequilibrium counterpart to the celebrated Kohlrausch and Debye–Hückel–Onsager conductivity laws for electrolytes, which are extended here to particles with long-range nonreciprocal interactions. The effective mobility law we derive reveals the existence of a regime of maximal mobility and could find applications in the description of nanoscale transport phenomena in living cells.
