✦ Synopsis


Thin polyethylene films cast on copper or gold were treated with low-pressure oxygen plasma. Changes in the chemical structure of these films were investigated by infrared spectroscopy using a reflection method in combination with chemical derivatization (CD) reactions. The potential of the CD is demonstrated for hydroxyl groups and carbonyl groups by the reaction with trifluoroacetic anhydride and hydrazine. The reaction conditions were varied to check for side reactions. The results of the derivatization are discussed in terms of secondary structures.

The low temperature plasma is a soft radiation source and it affects the material only over a few hundred angstroms deep, the bulk properties remaining unaffected. Plasma s

Having found much ambiguity in the infrared band assignments for polyamide 66 (PA66), we revisited some of these assignments before using infrared spectroscopy to assess microstructure changes resulting from multiple thermal treatments. We discovered that earlier assignments of the 1144 and 1180 cm
