Category: Surface Modification

Surfaces may be modified through plasma treatment for a variety of materials requirements. These may include enhancement of surface adhesion, surface functionalization with specific molecular end groups, cleaning and sterilization, surface oxidation, or plasma polymerization. The following papers discuss work that utilize Harrick Plasma equipment to study the surface activation and modification of various inorganic and organic materials.
