Abstract:
1. A method for manufacturing an electrophoretic display apparatus comprising: loading a cell spatially defined by a partition with a dispersion liquid containing an electrophoretically mobile particle and a dispersion medium for dispersing the electrophoretically mobile particle, applying a sealing solution to cover an exposed surface of the dispersion liquid loaded in the cell, the sealing solution containing a water-soluble polymer, the water-soluble polymer being dissolved in hydrophilic liquid, and forming a sealing coating by drying the sealing solution, wherein: the dispersion medium is a lipophilic hydrocarbon solvent, and the sealing coating contains a thickening agent to have an increased viscosity, and a target concentration of the thickening agent is from 2 wt % to 5 wt %.
