.... Electro-osmosis (first discovered by Reuss in 1809 from an experimental study on porous clay diaphragms) refers to liquid flow induced by an applied external electric field along electrostatically charged surfaces, and therefore the electro-osmotic flow (EOF) is quite different from the traditional...

... such that the opposing pressure force results in retardation of, and ultimately reverse flow in the tube core, while electro-osmosis drives positive velocities near the tube wall. This relation reveals that the value of Γ for which negative flow occurs decreases from a value of Γ=−0.21 at Z = 1...
