Although there are various forms of energy available for conducting surface and interfacial reactions, microwave plasma energy is an attractive means for surface modifications because it is fast and it usually does not alter bulk properties. In this study, a closed-system microwave plasma reactor wa
In order to pursue the dehydrochlorination of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) by microwave irradiation, measurement of the temperature profile during irradiation is indispensable. An optical fiber thermo-sensor is used to investigate a relation between temperature rise and microwave absorption onto PVC.
Poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) surfaces are modified with remote and direct Ar plasma, and the effects of the modification on the hydrophilicity of PTFE are investigated. The surface microstructures and compositions of the PTFE film were characterized with the goniometer, scanning electron microsc
