Abstract

A method for preventing the hydration/solubilization of the protective oxide coating of a phosphor is described. The method involves coating of the oxide coated phosphor particles with a continuous hydrophobic coating. After the phosphor particles are coated with the continuous hydrophobic coating and the continuous hydrophobic coating cured, they are added to a water-based suspension and subsequently processed into a lamp.
