To obtain a usable adhesive bond with polyolefins, the surface must be treated. A number of surface preparation methods, including flame, chemical, plasma, and primer treatments, are in use. Figure 16.4 illustrates the epoxy adhesive strength improvements that can be made by using various prebond surface treatments to change the critical surface tension of polyethylene. 

The Incorporation of metals Into polymer films produced by plasma techniques Is an attractive prospect since It can be envisaged that careful choice of the metal and organic phases, and close control of the overall composition of the product would greatly extend the scope of these plasma polymerized materials In, for example, electrical, magnetic and optical applications. In a previous paper (1) we have outlined a convenient method for the preparation of such materials derived from fluorinated monomers by simultaneous chemical plasma etching and polymerization in the same system. 

The positive ions therefore arrive at the cathode with increased kinetic energy and material is removed from its surface by competitive physical sputtering, in which momentum transfer to the surface is involved, as well as chemical plasma etching, through the formation of volatile species, which... 

The plasma parameters of f=5 cm mln (at STP), p=0.015 torr and w 100 watts are the same In all cases. The ESCA data Immediately affirm that both molybdenum and copper are Incorporated Into the polymer films although as previously noted the method of cathode erosion must be different In the two cases, (chemical plasma etching versus physical sputtering). Consideration of the relative signal Intensities, corrected for the total relative sensitivities of the core levels, derived from standard homogeneous samples, allows estimates of the empirical formulae to be written for these materials as follows [C3F4 oOo.6 °0.3ln... 

These are produced by several conversion processes (evaporation, sputtering, chemical plasma deposition). Evaporation is the same method as that used to create metallisation using aluminium. A material is heated in a crucible by either a resistive heat or an electron beam gun (hence the name electron beam deposition), whereby the material evaporates and subsequently condenses on a chilled film in a vacuum chamber. In the case of Sit), coatings, the aluminium used in metallisation is replaced by SiO/Si02. 

There are three major processes for applying the silicon oxide coating evaporation, sputtering, and chemical plasma deposition.

He recommended that, if bonding is primarily chemical, plasma treatment should be used on pitch carbon while, if the bonding is primarily physical, HTO should be used.

Atmospheric chemical plasma treatment system for webs... 

Atmospheric chemical plasma treatment systems are typically non-thermal, atmospheric-pressure, glow-discharge plasma systems that generate uniform and homogenous treatments. The level of surface tension and iongevity of treatment are both typically higher than air plasma treatment effects, and similar in treatment effect to flame plasmas. 

While these systems can provide an improvement over air corona, they fall considerably short of the results achievable with atmospheric chemical plasmas. As we will see, atmospheric plasmas create a fourth state of matter which differentiates its surface modification potential beyond what either a corona or chemical corona system can achieve. In turn, the treatment results of an atmospheric plasma system not only outperform corona systems, but they also can offer limitless possibilities.
