This collection focuses solely on the topic of electrophoretic deposition (EPD) and its application as a processing technique for the fabrication of both traditional and new materials.Papers describing the widest possible range of applications of EPD are included; thus reflecting the amazing versatility of the technique. The topics range from theoretical studies of the fundamental mechanisms of EPD, to novel technological developments of EPD for the low-cost fabrication of a variety of materials.Most of the papers address the application of the EPD technique to the manufacturing of engineering materials and components; including free-standing ceramic components, ceramic coatings on metallic substrates, fibre-reinforced ceramic matrix composites, nanostructured composites and films, microelectronic substrates, bioactive coatings, functionally graded materials, piezoelectric devices and solid oxide fuel cells.
