This comprehensive review begins by tracing the historical development and progress of
cold plasma technology as an innovative approach to polymer engineering. The study …

The use of polymers and nanomaterials has vastly grown for industrial and biomedical
sectors during last years. Before any designation or selection of polymers and their …

Cold atmospheric pressure plasma from a plasma jet was used to improve the adhesion
properties of polypropylene (PP). Differences in adhesion were at first observed for either air …

A suitable technique for localized surface treatment of solid materials is an atmospheric
pressure plasma jet (APPJ). The properties of the APPJ plasma often depend on small …

Gaining a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms underlying plasma-polymer
surface treatments using atmospheric pressure plasmas can guide their industrial …

Polypropylene is a typical representative of synthetic polymers that, for many applications
including adhesive joints, requires an increase in wettability and chemical surface reactivity …

Piezoelectric nanogenerators (PENGs) with molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) monolayers have
been intensively studied owing to their superior mechanical durability and stability …

We quantitatively investigated the roles and mechanisms of OH radicals in polypropylene
(PP) surface modification utilizing a previously proposed vacuum ultraviolet …

The inert surface of polyethylene (PE) hinders its application in composites field. Here we
report a rapid functionalisation method of molten PE using atmosphere pressure plasma …

This paper presents an approach to improve the surface wettability of
polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) using an atmospheric-pressure plasma of argon gas with …
