Atmospheric Pressure Plasma for Surface Modification by Rory A. Wolf Pdf

This Book's focus and intent is to impart an understanding of the practical application of atmospheric plasma for the advancement of a wide range of current and emerging technologies. The primary key feature of this book is the introduction of over thirteen years of practical experimental evidence of successful surface modifications by atmospheric plasma methods. It offers a handbook-based approach for leveraging and optimizing atmospheric plasma technologies which are currently in commercial use. It also offers a complete treatment of both basic plasma physics and industrial plasma processing with the intention of becoming a primary reference for students and professionals. The reader will learn the mechanisms which control and operate atmospheric plasma technologies and how these technologies can be leveraged to develop in-line continuous processing of a wide variety of substrates. Readers will gain an understanding of specific surface modification effects by atmospheric plasmas, and how to best characterize those modifications to optimize surface cleaning and functionalization for adhesion promotion. The book also features a series of chapters written to address practical surface modification effects of atmospheric plasmas within specific application markets, and a commercially-focused assessment of those effects.

Atmospheric Pressure Plasma by Anton Nikiforov,Zhiqiang Chen Pdf

Plasma as the fourth state of matter is an ionized gas consisting of both negative and positive ions, electrons, neutral atoms, radicals, and photons. In the last few decades, atmospheric-pressure plasmas have started to attract increasing attention from both scientists and industry due to a variety of potential applications. Because of increasing interest in the topic, the focus of this book is on providing engineers and scientists with a fundamental understanding of the physical and chemical properties of different atmospheric-pressure plasmas via plasma diagnostic techniques and their applications. The book has been organized into two parts. Part I focuses on the latest achievements in advanced diagnostics of different atmospheric-pressure plasmas. Part II deals with applications of different atmospheric-pressure plasmas.

Atmospheric Pressure Plasmas by Margaret Parker Pdf

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.

Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Treatment of Polymers by Michael Thomas,K. L. Mittal Pdf

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

Frontiers in Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Technology by Andrei Vasile Nastuta Pdf

Atmospheric pressure plasma discharges have grown rapidly in importance in recent decades, due to the ease in handling and operation, plus their eco-friendly applications, for agriculture, food, medicine, materials and even the automotive and aerospace industries. In this context, the need for a collection of results based on plasma technologies is justified. Moreover, at the international level, the increased number of projects that translated to publications and patents in the multidisciplinary field of plasma-based technology gives researchers the opportunity to challenge their knowledge and contribute to a new era of green services and products that society demands. Therefore, this book, based on the Special Issue of "Frontiers in Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Technology" in the "Applied Physics" section of the journal Applied Sciences, provides results on some plasma-based methods and technologies for novel and possible future applications of plasmas in life sciences, biomedicine, agriculture, and the automotive industry. This book, entitled "Frontiers in Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Technology", consists of 8 research articles, 2 review articles and 1 editorial. We know that we are only managing to address a small part of what plasma discharge can be used for, but we hope that the readers will enjoy this book and, therefore, be inspired with new ideas for future research in the field of plasma.
