We are presenting recent advances in surface functionalization of materials such as
functional polymers using gaseous plasma treatments. Functionalization is a result of …

In this research, conversion of carbon dioxide and water vapor into value-added chemicals
has been investigated in a pulsed surfacewave sustained microwave discharge operating …

A capacitive discharge in water vapour in the pressure range 133–150 Pa was studied. The
discharge is an effective ecologically pure source of OH* hydroxyl emission in the VUV and …

Optical emission spectroscopy was used to monitor the evolution of chemical reactions
taking place on the surface of semicrystalline polypropylene during oxygen plasma …

Decontamination treatments of surfaces are performed on bacterial spores, albumin and
brain homogenate used as models of biological contaminations in a low-pressure …

The nonequilibrium state of gas is introduced as a medium suitable for tailoring the surface
properties of solid materials. Such a state of a molecular gas is characterized by a huge …

In the current study, kinetics of hydrogen formation from water vapour plasmolysis and
ozone formation from air plasma are analysed. The hypothesis of this paper is that operating …

A microwave-inspired device that generates stable in-liquid plasma (LP) in aqueous media
and emits narrow light emission lines at 280–320 nm,~ 660 nm and 780 nm is examined as …

Samples of PVC foils are exposed to an early afterglow of gaseous plasma created by an
electrode‐less RF discharge in predominant H‐mode using Ar, H2 and O2 gases. Sample …

A primary research focus in tissue engineering addresses the factors that drive cell growth in
scaffolds. Due to the inherent complexity of phenomena at the cell/biomaterial interface in …
