چکیده

Plasma treatment of particles offers to tailor macroscopic powder properties like wettability, flowability or compactibility. Plasma activation normally leads to an enhanced wettability and the deposition of SiOx-like nanostructures on the substrate particle surface increases the flowability and compactibility. These different functionalities are investigated and compared for the polymer HDPE (high-density polyethylene).

Characterization and Phase Transformation of Spherical YSZ Powders Fabricated Via air Plasma Spray Method

Air plasma spray (APS) process is used to produce high density and flowability spherical powders. Phase transformation that occurred in this process isn’t well known. In this paper, the YSZ powders have been sprayed in water to investigate the morphology changes and phase transformations via air plasma spray (APS) method. Phase analysis of powders was examined by XRD and the crystallite size an...

Wettability Study of Super-Hydrophobic Silica Aerogel Powders

Due to the importance of super-hydrophobic silica aerogel powder as a material in the field of energy saving, its wettability in the presence of various surfactants was investigated. One anionic and two non-ionic surfactants with different molecular structures were used as wetting and dispersing agents. Wetting properties of the aerogel powders were investigated by the contact angle measure...

Surface Treatment of Polymeric Fine Powders by CF4 Plasma in a Circulating Fluidized Bed Reactor

A low-pressure plasma surface treatment of polymeric powders was carried out in a circulating fluidized bed (CFB) reactor (10 mm-I.D. × 800 mm-high) with CF4 glow discharge. The effects of solid circulation rate, treatment time and radio frequency (rf) power of plasma on fluorination of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) powders have been determined. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and the...

Possibility of using plasma-processed hybrid nanofibers to remove toluene in air stream

Introduction: Despite nanofibers have attracted great interests for filtering particulate matters from the air stream, fewer studies have been done on the feasibility of their use in the removal of gas pollutants, while the both pollutants are present in the most workplaces. Toluene is a toxic and mutagenic substance, and chronic exposure to its low levels can lead to a wide range of adverse he...

Numerical Modeling of Non-equilibrium Plasma Discharge of Hydrogenated Silicon Nitride (SiH4/NH3/H2)

In this work, we model a radiofrequency discharge of hydrogenated silicon nitride in a capacitive coupled plasma reactor using Maxwellian and non-Maxwellian electron energy distribution function. The purpose is to investigate whether there is a real advantage and a significant contribution using non-Maxwellian electron energy distribution function rather than Maxwellian one for determining the ...
