## Abstract The viscoelastic properties of the amorphous and semicrystalline PEEK and of a PEEKโbased composite (APC2) have been analyzed as a function of the aging time and related free volume relaxation, at temperatures close to the glass transition temperature. The effect of thermal treatments (
Polystyrene and polyethyleneterephthalate (PET) coupons were exposed to r.f. plasmas containing helium, oxygen and nitrogen. The modified surfaces were characterized by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy shortly following plasma treatment and after storage in air for about 360 days. The oxygen concent
