Highly contaminated surface difficult for adhesion.
The plasma breaks up separating agents, silicons and oils from the surface.
Active oxygen species (radicals) from the plasma bind to active surface sites all over the material, creating a surface that is highly ‘active’ to bonding agents.
Atmospheric plasma treatment is ideal for in-line processing or for the plasma treatment of small areas of larger parts that would otherwise be too large for vacuum/batch processing. Atmospheric plasma is very effective at activating and cleaning the surface of a material, increasing the adhesion characteristics and making it easier to bond, paint and glue. The atmospheric plasma nozzle can be clamped to a fixed point or to a simple multi-axis robot making it ideal for industrial applications.
