Affecting Parameters on Polymers Surface Treatment by Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Jets

Low-temperature atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ) is a new technology that proves their effectiveness in the field of polymer surface treatment. It used to improve wettability and adhesion property of the surface. These modifications are affected by the treatment time, source- surface distance, the discharge gas and the type of polymer. The aim of this study is to reach a deeper understanding about the influence of these parameters on the surface modification of different polymer through review of research paper published during the past years.
