In this paper, the percolation of mixtures of monomers and polyatomic species (kk-mers) on a square lattice is studied. By means of a finite-size scaling analysis, the critical exponents and the scaling collapsing of the fraction of percolating lattices are found. A phase diagram separating a percolating from a non-percolating region is determined. The main features of the phase diagram are discussed in order to predict its evolution for larger kk-mer sizes.
