Abstract
Abstract In the process for preparing thick films comprising dispersing powder of a starting material for thick films in a solvent system, applying direct electric potential between the electrodes provided in the solvent system and thus electrodepositing the powder material on a substrate connected to the cathode, an improvement wherein a mixed solvent comprising an alcohol or alcohols, a methyl-group-containing ketone or ketones and nitorcellulose is disclosed. By this process thick films of solid electrolytes can be economically formed.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
76 words
A process for electrophoretically depositing films of zirconia solid electrolyte comprising: (a) dispersing Y 2 O 3 stabilized zirconia powder in a solvent system consisting essentially of 30-50% by volume of one or more alcohols, 50-70% by volume of one or more methyl group-containing ketones and 0.001-0.5% by volume of nitrocellulose; (b) applying direct electric potential between electrodes which are provided in the solvent system, thereby depositing the powder on a substrate connected to the cathode.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
76 words
A process for electrophoretically depositing films of zirconia solid electrolyte comprising: (a) dispersing Y 2 O 3 stabilized zirconia powder in a solvent system consisting essentially of 30-50% by volume of one or more alcohols, 50-70% by volume of one or more methyl group-containing ketones and 0.001-0.5% by volume of nitrocellulose; (b) applying direct electric potential between electrodes which are provided in the solvent system, thereby depositing the powder on a substrate connected to the cathode.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
14 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said alcohols are methyl alcohol and hexyl alcohol.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
20 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said solvent system consists essentially of methyl alcohol, hexyl alcohol, methylisobutyl ketone and nitrocellulose.
