In this study new theoretical method of calculations of effective properties of porous and dispersed materials is suggested. The new method takes into account cluster formation in colloidal suspensions/emulsions. This method is applied to calculations of dependence of effective properties of porous and dispersed materials on volume fraction of dispersed phase. Theoretical predictions are compared with available experimental data. [Continues.]
