Surface Modification of Ag Nano Composites Polymer Membranes by Glow Discharge Plasma

Surface Decontamination by Dielectric Barrier Discharge Plasma

Background: Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD), a source of non-thermal plasma, is used in surface decontamination. Objective: To study the effect of DBD plasma treatment, we evaluated the effect of plasma exposure time on inactivation of Bacillus subtilis. Results: Applying the DBD plasma to the culture of B. subtilis caused complete sterilization of the surface without any thermal effects. In...

Plasma Modification of Paper by Means of Surface Barrier Discharge

Plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD) at atmospheric pressure becomes a promising technology. The objective of the present work is to develop technique for deposition of thin films with desired properties on paper surface by means of atmospheric pressure discharge. The depositions were carried out by the means of surface discharge at atmospheric pressure. The films were deposited f...

Artificial cornea: surface modification of silicone rubber membrane by graft polymerization of pHEMA via glow discharge.

A method for producing various surfaces of silicone rubber membrane (SR) was developed in this study by grafting various amounts of poly(2-hydroxy ethyl methacrylate) (pHEMA) onto SR by plasma-induced grafted polymerization (PIP) as a homobifunctional membrane. The elemental composition and different carbon bindings on the surface of SR were examined by electron spectroscopy for chemical analys...

Experimental Study on the Surface Modification by Electrical Discharge Process

The creation of modified layer on metal surfaces using new methods is one of the procedures in surface engineering which can improve the surface mechanical properties. The electrical discharge process is a new method that can form a modified layer on the metal surfaces. This study aims to improve of pure aluminum surface properties through Electrical Discharge process with Monel 400 electrode. ...
