Reference EntryDOI

Surface Modification of Polymers

TL;DR: The surface and interface properties of polymers cannot be overemphasized as discussed by the authors, and the most common surface modification techniques for synthetic polymers are plasma modification, surface grafting and graft polymerization, and chemical modification and reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface modification of poly(tetrafluoroethylene) films by plasma polymerization and UV-induced graft copolymerization for adhesion enhancement with electrolessly-deposited copper

TL;DR: In this paper, surface modification of H2 plasma-pretreated poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) films, either by plasma polymerization and deposition of GMA, or by UV-induced graft copolymerization with glycidyl methacrylate (GMA), was carried out for adhesion enhancement with the electrolesslydeposited copper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface Modification of Poly(tetrafluoroethylene) Films by Plasma Pre-Activation and Plasma Polymerization of Glycidyl Methacrylate

TL;DR: In this paper, surface modification of poly(tetrafuoroethylene) (PTFE) film by plasma polymerzation and deposition of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA), in the presence and absence of Ar or O2 plasma pre-activation, was carried out to enhance the adhesion with polyimides (PI) film in presence of an epoxy adhesive.
Book ChapterDOI

Anti-adhesive and Antibacterial Polymer Brushes

TL;DR: This article focuses mainly on polymer coatings which achieved the antibacterial effect without the leaching of the bactericidal components into the environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cationic porphyrin-based nanoparticles for photodynamic inactivation and identification of bacteria strains.

TL;DR: It was found that the cationic porphyrin-based NPs could be utilized to identify Gram-positive bacteria by observing the sedimentation behavior of their mixtures, and visualizing their co-cultured and centrifugal bacteria cakes.
