Effect of surface modifiers on the nanoparticles electro-driven assembly

Understanding the colloidal behavior of particles is mandatory to prepare stable and disperse suspensions suitable for EPD. Up today, most of the proposed models for the EPD kinetics have been formulated considering the electrophoresis process, where depositing features are quantified by the sticking factor, a probabilistic and empiric parameter. Proposed models have demonstrated that interparticles forces are also the clue to understand the way in which particles compact on the electrode under the influence of an electric field in an electrostatically stabilized suspension.
