An indispensable volume detailing the current and potential applications of atmospheric pressure plasma treatment by experts practicing in fields around the world Polymers are used in a wide variety of industries to fabricate legions of products because of their many desirable traits. However, polymers in general (and polyolefins, in particular) are innately not very adhesionable because of the absence of polar or reactive groups on their surfaces and concomitant low surface energy. Surface treatment of polymers, however, is essential to impart reactive chemical groups on their surfaces to enhance their adhesion characteristic. Proper surface treatment can endow polymers with improved adhesion without affecting the bulk properties. A plethora of techniques (ranging from wet to dry, simple to sophisticated, vacuum to non-vacuum) for polymer surface modification have been documented in the literature but the Atmospheric Pressure Plasma (APP) treatment has attracted much attention because it offers many advantages vis-a-vis other techniques, namely uniform treatment, continuous operation, no need for vacuum, simplicity, low cost, no environmental or disposal concern, and applicability to large area samples. Although the emphasis in this book is on the utility of APP treatment for enhancement of polymer adhesion, APP is also applicable and effective to modulate many other surface properties of polymers: superhydrophilicity, superhydrophobicity, anti-fouling, anti-fogging, anti-icing, cell adhesion, biocompatibility, tribological behavior, etc. The key features of Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Treatment of Polymers: Address design and functions of various types of reactors Bring out current and potential applications of APP treatment Represent the cumulative wisdom of many key academic and industry researchers actively engaged in this key and enabling technology

Plasma is one of the most fundamental states of matter other than solid, liquid and gaseous. It consists of positive ions, neutral atoms, electrons, negative ions and neutral or charged molecules can be identified. Generally, plasma can be classified according to its gas temperature. Atmospheric-pressure plasma (APP), is actually a partly ionized gas. Non-equilibrium APP has an ability to produce a mixture of reactive species including, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS), which can act as biologically active agents. This book discusses the processes, technology and applications of APPs. The first chapter examines the influence of APPs on biomolecules. Chapter Two focuses on the development and application of optical techniques for diagnosing gliding arc discharge at atmospheric pressure, emphasis being placed on gaining a better understanding of the spatial, temporal and spectral discharge characteristics. Chapter Three presents several approaches for such free-form plasma activation of different plastics and polymers based on direct and indirect dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasmas. Chapter Four reviews the combination of plasmachemical oxidation PCO and atmospheric pressure chemical vapour deposition APCVD for creating novel functional surfaces. Chapter Five reviews the impact of gas diffusion barrier film synthesis on polymers by atmospheric pressure plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition. Chapter Six presents and discusses some of the most recent applications of microwave plasmas, with the view of understanding microwave plasma behaviour. Chapter Seven discusses selective synthesis of self-standing carbon nanostructures using microwave driven plasmas at atmospheric pressure conditions. Chapter Eight studies the application of non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma in textiles. Chapter Nine reviews a current state of the art and opportunities for the use of plasma surface treatment in the coating and conversion of paper products.
