Abstract

　The enhancement of the gas barrier property of plastic bottles is demanded in the food and beverage industry for improved quality retention. Amorphous carbon (DLC) coating is used for high barrier PET bottles, where a plasma chemical vapor deposition technique with radio frequency is employed. This article introduces the advancements of this technology and possible further applications.
