Process Control and Plasma Modification of Polymers

Abstract

The utilization of flow pressure plasma technology for some industrial applications in the field of polymer modification for biomedical applications is described. The use of process control diagnostics for implementing on-line processes will be discussed. The following processes will be discussed: deposition of super-hydrophobic and nano- micro-structured coating, non fouling and bacterial resistant coatings, -COOH functional coatings, micropatterned surfaces, anti-bacteric coatings.
