In the course of plasma deposition of organic-polymeric thin films, radicals are incorporated into the growing film. These radicals initiate spontaneous oxidation reactions that continue over many weeks when the plasma polymers are stored in air. These reactions and their products have been previously studied in detail for spectroscopically simple, hydrocarbon-based plasma polymers. In this investigation, the aging of 1,3-diaminopropane (DAP) plasma polymer samples was monitored by XPS and FTIR in order to study how the oxidative reaction pathways might differ in a plasmadeposited material that is initially rich in amine groups. The freshly deposited DAP plasma polymer consisted of a random hydrocarbon network with a considerable amount of unsaturation and a high concentration of nitrogen-containing functional groups, mainly primary/secondary amines and imines. These groups strongly influenced the aging reactions: in contrast to hydrocarbon-based material where hydrogen abstraction and reaction of carbon-centered radicals with in-diffusing oxygen result in a wide range of oxidative products, both XPS and FTIR identified a rather narrow range of products (mainly amides and similar groups) in DAP plasma polymers even after extensive aging for more than 2 years. Reaction routes based on oxidation and/or hydrolysis of nitrogen functional groups, and involving primary as well as secondary reactions, are proposed to account for the spectroscopic data. The structure of the aged DAP plasma polymer appeared to be stable, and did not undergo more extensive oxidation, in contrast to hydrocarbon plasma polymers. In particular, carboxylic acid groups and carbamates were not detected.
