Abstract

AbstractIn this study, we attempted to use TRITON™ X (or octyl phenol ethoxylate (OPE) of different oxyethylene units (i.e., n = 2, 5, and 10))‐based dispersants containing a carboxylic group in the oxyethylene chain end for the formulation of BAM phosphor paste. Thus, a three‐component system employing OPE‐COOH as a dispersant, terpineol as a solvent, and ethyl cellulose as a binder was compounded with BAM particles, and the rheological properties of the paste were investigated in detail. Among three acidic TRITON X‐based compounds we tested (i.e., [OPE2‐COOH], [OPE5‐COOH], and [OPE10‐COOH]), OPE10‐COOH containing the highest number of oxyethylene units in the backbone was found to be the dispersant showing the lowest viscosity of BAM paste under identical conditions. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
