| contents | We develop a multidensity formulation of the Ornstein-Zernike equation with Percus-Yevick closure for hard spheres with anisotropic surface adhesion of tetrahedral quadrupolar-like symmetry. An analytical solution is obtained using the invariant expansion method combined with Baxter's factorization technique. Structural properties are evaluated using both the multidensity theory and the previously proposed single-density molecular OZ approach. At low stickiness, the two theories yield nearly identical predictions, while increasing stickiness leads to growing discrepancies and eventual loss of convergence of the single-density approach. These results highlight the importance of multidensity descriptions for strongly associating anisotropic fluids. |
