Abstract

Electrodeposition of paint (EDP) is a process, in which an electronically conducting substrate is dipped into an aqueous solution of water-borne paint. In most of the cases, the binder is an organic polymer which contains carboxylic groups, thus forming a polyelectrolyte, which provides, at least in the partially neutralized state, some ionic conductivity to the solution. If the substrate is polarized anodically versus a counterelectrode, for which the walls of the tank are usually used (cf. Figure 1), current flow through the system causes electrochemical reactions at the phase boundary substrate-bath, leading to electrocoagulation of the paint.
