摘要
Polycarbonate (PC) films were activated using cyclonic atmospheric pressure plasma. The experimentally measured gas phase temperature was from 30 to 95 degrees C, demonstrating that this cyclonic atmospheric pressure plasma can treat heat-sensitive polymeric materials at the low temperatures. The surface hydrophilicity changes of cyclonic atmospheric pressure plasma-treated PC films were determined by water contact angle analysis. The activation effects of plasma operational parameters including treatment time, plasma power, and distance of nozzle to substrate on the PC surface features were investigated. The glow feature and luminous plasma species in the cyclonic atmospheric pressure plasma were identified by optical emission spectroscopy (OES). Cyclonic atmospheric pressure plasma-activated PC films showed a significant decrease in water contact angle. In this investigation, we developed an innovative technique for chamberless polymeric surface activation by this atmospheric pressure plasma processing. (C) 2011 The Japan Society of Applied Physics
