Spanish researchers developed a new micro-structuration process to improve the undesired wetting behaviour of polypropylene (PP).
A new study examined the complex environment of and processes in stable plasma polymer films in aqueous conditions.
Researchers made a simple and straightforward modification to the conventional method of thin film deposition to establish an easier procedure for the production of micron size wedge thin films.
A new study shows that propanol-based plasma pretreatment of plastics not only improves adhesion of coatings to plastics but improves the coatings themselves as well.
A new study shows promising improvement in plasma treatment by using only small modifications in the plasma jet set-up.
A new study reports for the first time that pre-sowing seed treatment with physical stressors induce not only changes in germination and plant growth but also substantial increase in amounts of biologically active constituents and antioxidant activity in leaves of medicinal plant.
Researchers present an experimental set-up which generates plasma processed air to wash and dry off fresh and fresh-cut produce.
