Abstract
A liquid marble is a droplet of liquid coated with microparticles or nanoparticles. A novel method of localized electrochemical deposition (LECD) using liquid marbles and the feasibility of application of this method in additive manufacturing/microrepair is studied. Controllability of the transportation of liquid marbles to any desired location by pick and place technique has been demonstrated by depositing a 3 × 3 grid pattern with 1 mm period using an in-house built CNC setup. Electrodeposition experiments performed at defective spots with liquid marbles confirm the feasibility of microrepair using this novel technique.
