Electric-Field-Assisted Dip-Coating for Ultra-Thin PFPE Lubricant Film on Magnetic Disks- Molecular Conformation Change by Electric Field -

The mechanism responsible for the effects of electric fields on the lubricant dip-coating process was investigated by comparing the lubricant film conformations obtained when applying an electric field for different durations. A QA-40 solution was prepared for dip-coating a magnetic disk under two c...
