Plasma polymerization and its applications i n textiles
نویسنده
چکیده
Plasma polymerization enables the deposit ion of thin coatings on all k inds of substrates using electrical monomer discharges. This paper reviews plasma polymerization processes as surface modification (finishing) for textile applications. The dry and ecofriendly plasma technology aims at replacing wet-chemical process steps and adding new values to textile products. Characteristics of hydrocarbon, organosilicon, fluorocarbon, hydrophilic functional, monofunctional and ceramic coatings have been discussed to demonstrate their potential for textiles and fibers. Plasma technology requires adequate reactors for the continuous treatment of fabrics and fibers. To enable the optimization of plasma polymerization on batch reactors, questions of up-scal i ng are addressed to demonstrate the transfer to an industrial level. Both atmospheric and low pressure plasmas are considered regardi ng their effectiveness and efficiency. Examples for applications in textiles, such as hydrophobic, oleophobic and permanent hydrophi l ic treatments, have also been reported.

Propene-cycloolefin polymerization
Highly active metallocenes and other single site catalysts have opened up the possibility of polymerizing cycloolefins such as norbornene (N) or of copolymerizing them with ethene (E) or propene (P). The polymers obtained show exciting structures and properties. E-N copolymers are industrially produced materials, with variable and high glass transitions depending on the wide range of their micr...
