In this paper, we consider the initial and Dirichlet boundary value problem of the viscous Cahn-Hilliard equation with a general nonlinearity $f$, that is $$ d((1-\alpha)u-\alpha\Delta u)+(\Delta^2u-\Delta f(u))dt= 0, $$where $\alpha\in[0,1]$. Firstly, we establish the existence and continuity results on weak solutions and attractors to this problem. Secondly, we show the $\alpha$-uniform attractiveness of the attractors $A_\alpha$.

Keywords: attractors, The $\alpha$-uniform dissipativeness, global solutions, the $\alpha$-uniform attractiveness of attractors..
