Structure and Stability of Composition-Graded Transitional Buffering Phase

STRUCTURE AND STABILITY OF COMPOSITION-GRADED TRANSITIONAL BUFFERING PHASE [Pg.462]

The stability of composition-graded films seems to be good because the adhesion value and chemical analysis data obtained by XPS do not show any significant changes after aging 2 months in a desiccator. [Pg.464]

Electroless plating on polymeric substrates activated by the sputter deposition of electrode material with simultaneous plasma polymerization is possible. [Pg.464]

Composition-graded composite films of plasma polymer and metal can be controlled to give surfaces capable of being electroplated. [Pg.464]

Surface conditioning by plasma pretreatment with oxygen and hydrogen is a crucial factor in obtaining very strong bonding at the interface between the substrate and composite plasma polymer film as a preplate for metallization. [Pg.464]
