The "two-patch" and "four-patch" Bol (Chapman or Kern and Frenkel) model was extensively studied by Chapman and co-workers for bulk and interfacial systems using hard sphere and Lennard-Jones | The "two-patch" and "four-patch" Bol (Chapman or Kern and Frenkel) model was extensively studied by Chapman and co-workers for bulk and interfacial systems using hard sphere and Lennard-Jones references. Later other groups, including Sciortino and co-workers, considered stronger association energies for the "two-patch" hard sphere reference <ref name="bianchi">[http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2730797 F.
