What Plasma Treating Does to a Surface Video Animation
Plasma Treatment cleaning, etching and functionalizing Atmospheric plasma treatment is used by manufacturers, converters and packagers to improve surface energy and adhesion. The animations below show how the process effectively functionalizes surfaces. These treatment systems diffuse reactive gases toward the surface under the influence of electrical fields. Low molecular weight materials such as water, absorbed…
