Experimental review of PEI electrodeposition onto copper substrates for insulation of complex geometries

• Polyetherimide (PEI) was used for coating copper substrates via electrophoretic deposition (EPD) for electrical insulation. Different substrate preparation and electrical field application techniques were compared, demonstrating that the use of a pulsed voltage of 20 V allowed for the best formation of insulating coatings in the 2-6 mu m thickness range. The results indicate that pulsed EPD is the best technique to effectively coat conductive substrates with superior surface finish coatings that could pass a dielectric withstand test at 10 kV mm(-1), which is of importance within the EV automotive industry.
