Abstract
In this paper, we consider the existence of global attractor for a class of sixth-order Cahn-Hilliard equation with a nonlinear diffusion and viscous effects in an infinite domain. Due to the noncompactness of operators, we use weighted Sobolev spaces to prove that the semigroup generated by the equation has the global attractor in a suitable space.
