Abstract:The preparation of a thick coating of mesoporous silica (MPS) on metal substrates by electrophoretic deposition (EPD) has been studied for application to an advanced desiccant cooling system. In this study, we investigated the EPD mechanism of MPS in acetone under a constant applied voltage for the fabrication of a thick MPS coating. We consider that the main contributors to the resistance between the deposition electrode and the counter electrode are the deposited MPS layer and the EPD bath. The current de… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based startup that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
