10 am - 11 am Central Time
Adhesion to Plastics – The Chemical Bonding Effects by Atmospheric Plasma
Plasma processes have been developed to create a variety of specific surface modifications and properties, primarily for the enhancement of adhesion. Good adhesion requires strong interfacial forces via chemical compatibility and/ or chemical bonding. Plasma processing can also be used to tailor surface energies, and to clean surfaces, in a dry (and very green) processing mode. This webinar will explain the potential functionalization of polymer surfaces and define the plasma processing techniques to use to improve bond strength.
