RSOZ
Given and Stell (Refs 1 and 2) provided exact OZ equations for two-phase random media based on the original work of Madden and Glandt (Refs 3 and 4). For a two-species system, for the replicated system one has (see Eq.s 2.7 --2.11 Ref. 2):
In the limit of these equations from the ROZ equations (see Eq.s 2.12 --2.16 Ref. 2):

At very low matrix porosities, i.e. very high densities of matrix particles, the volume accessible to fluid particles is divided into small cavities, each totally surrounded by a matrix. In this limit, the function Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle h_c (x)} describes correlations between fluid particles in the same cavity and the function Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle h_b(x)} describes correlations between particles in different cavities.
