ÐAn electrophoretic deposition (EPD) technique is used to prepare porous alumina membranes. The deposition kinetics which are conventionally derived based on a mass conservation law have been modi®ed in terms of the thickness of the deposited layer. This modi®cation allows the porosity evolution of the membrane to be predicted under a variety of EPD processes. A transition in deposition from li...

This chapter reviews the novel fabrication process of continuous SiCf /SiC composites based on electrophoretic deposition (EPD). EPD process is very effective for achieving relatively homogeneous carbon coating with the thickness of several tens to hundreds nanometers on SiC fibers. Carbon interface with the thickness of at least 100 nm formed by EPD acts effectively for inducing interfacial de...

BACKGROUND Plasma-spray deposition of hydroxyapatite on titanium (Ti) has proven to be a suboptimal solution to improve orthopedic-implant success rates, as demonstrated by the increasing number of orthopedic revision surgeries due to infection, implant loosening, and a myriad of other reasons. This could be in part due to the high heat involved during plasma-spray deposition, which significant...

The application of ceramic protective coatings to the metallic interconnects in solid oxide cells (SOCs) is a viable and effective method limit interconnect degradation issues. This featured letter provides critical overview main outcomes current research on use electrophoretic deposition (EPD) technique produce for SOC interconnects, specifically focusing different approaches stabilise spinel-...

Homogeneous thick silica coatings were prepared onto metals substrates by Electrophoretic Deposition (EPD) using particulate sol-gel sols. The synthesis of the sols was performed by mixing tetraethoxysilane and methyltriethoxysilane under basic catalysis. The synthesis, storage and processing conditions were optimised, correlating the rheological properties of the sols with EPD performance and ...

The applications of electrophoretic deposition (EPD) to the development electrochemical energy storage (EES) devices such as batteries and supercapacitors are reviewed. A discussion on selection parameters for optimizing EPD electrode performance, light-directed EPD, co-deposition active materials metal oxides manufactured with high porosity fibrous properties is highlighted. Additionally, mean...

Aluminum coating was prepared on AZ91D magnesium alloy substrate using the electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method in absolute ethanol solvent. In order to determine the optimal concentration of AlCl3.6H2O additive, the zeta potential and size of particles in the suspension were measured in the presence of different concentrations of AlCl3.6H2O. The results showed that an appropriate coating is...

In this study, we investigated the deposition kinetics of polyvinylidene fluoride copolymerized with trifluoroethylene (P(VDF-TrFE)) particles on stainless steel substrates during the electrophoretic deposition (EPD) process. The effect of applied voltage and deposition time on the structure and ferroelectric property of the P(VDF-TrFE) films was studied in detail. A method of repeated EPD and ...

This study investigated the electrophoretic deposition (EPD) of the natural polymer zein combined with bioactive glass (BG) particles. Through the deposition of various BG compositions, namely 45S5 BG and Cu-doped BG, this work sought to demonstrate the ability of the films to potentiate the formation of hydroxyapatite (HA) in contact with simulated body fluid (SBF). Following incubation in SBF...
