Electrophoretic deposition of polymer and composite films
Abstract
Electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method has been developed for the fabrication of poly(4-vinylpyridine- co-butyl methacrylate) (PVPBM) films and composite PVPBM–CeO 2 films. The deposition kinetics and mechanisms of cathodic EPD of pure PVPBM, CeO 2 and composites were investigated and discussed. The surface charging and dispersion of CeO 2 was achieved using trans-cinnamic acid (TCA). The influence of TCA concentration and solvent on the …
