Oxygen plasma is widely used for enhancing the wettability of numerous polymers, including
polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The treatment with plasma containing oxygen will cause …

Autohesion (direct-bonding or self-bonding) is the formation of bonds between two surfaces
of an identical polymer at elevated temperature (usually just above T g). It is an emerging …

In this paper, polyvinyl alcohol/starch/graphene oxide nanocomposites containing glycerol
were prepared via the solution-casting technique. The effect of different times (10, 20, 30 …

The effect of oxygen plasma treatment (t= 0.1–60 min, p O2= 0.2 mbar, P= 50 W) of parylene
C implant surface coating was investigated in order to check its influence on morphology …

The preliminary evaluation is described of a new electro-thermal anti-icing/de-icing device
for carbon fibre composite aerostructures. The heating element is an electro-conductive …
