Electrophoretic Deposition (EPD): Fundamentals and Novel Applications in Fabrication of Advanced Ceramic Microstructures

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Electrophoretic Deposition of Nanomaterials

Part of the book series: Nanostructure Science and Technology ((NST))

Abstract

This chapter provides critical review on the fundamentals of the process of Electrophoretic Deposition (EPD), a powerful, facile and versatile forming or consolidation technique. This chapter also establishes that like an ideal consolidation process, EPD can (a) produce homogeneous and dense green bodies, (b) produce complicated shapes effectively and easily, and (c) allow flexibility in microstructural manipulation i.e. can produce a wide montage of advance micro and nano-structured materials ranging from dispersed, laminated, fiber-reinforced composites to functionally graded materials having diverse applications ranging from solid oxide fuel cell to bio-compatible coatings on implants to pseudo light emitting devices, etc. This chapter also identifies the myths, potential future applications and the outstanding fundamental issues in the process of EPD that require more attention from the research community.
