A part assembly (100), comprising: an aluminium part (101); a magnesium part (102), the magnesium part (102) coated in a first coating (104); a bond (103), the bond (103) securing the aluminium part (101) to the coated magnesium part (114); wherein the aluminium part (101), the coated magnesium part (114) and the bond (103) are subjected to an electrophoresis coating process to coat the aluminium part (101) in a second coating (105). By subjecting the aluminium part (101), the coated magnesium part (114) and the bond (103) to an electrophoresis coating process to coat the aluminium part (101) in a second coating (105) this may provide a simpler manufacturing process.

A hydrogel is formed by a reaction which is induced, in an electrolytic solution, by an electrode product electrochemically generated by electrodes installed in the electrolytic solution. An apparatus including an electrolytic tank with a bottom surface on which a two-dimensional array of working electrodes is provided and a counter electrode installed in the electrolytic tank is prepared. An electrolytic solution containing a dissolved substance that causes electrolytic deposition of a hydrogel is housed in the electrolytic tank. By applying a predetermined voltage to one or more selected working electrodes of the two-dimensional array, a hydrogel with a two-dimensional pattern corresponding to the arrangement of the selected working electrodes is formed.
