“…Felix et al [120] reported that oxygen plasma treatment considerably enhanced the interfacial adhesion between regenerated cellulose fibers (rayon) and a polyethylene (PE) matrix, as established by the measured shear strength values and the birefringence patterns observed. The improved adhesion was attributed to covalent bonds formed between the rayon fibers and the matrix.…”

A review of low-temperature plasma treatment of textile materials

In recent years, plasma treatment technology has attracted more attention in the textile industry, as it seems to be a promising economically and ecologically sound alternative to conventional wet-chemical processing techniques. Plasma surface treatment is a relatively simple process that is clean, solvent-free, time saving, and environmentally friendly. Moreover, plasma treatments offer the possibility to obtain typical textile finishes without changing the key textile properties. The efficiency of plasma treatment depends on several factors including the nature of the substrate and the treatment operating conditions. However, the application of plasma technology to different kinds of textile materials has not been fully exploited. This paper presents a review of the current literature on the surface modification of textiles by lowtemperature plasma (LTP) technology. Its main objectives are to (i) investigate the influence of LTP treatment on the surface properties of natural and man made textile materials, (ii) outline the contribution of LTP treatment towards sustainable development, and (iii) examine the hurdles that LTP has to overcome in the textile industry.

“…Cold plasma treatment is an extremely versatile technique for modifying the polymer surfaces of totally different shapes (Clark 1979et al, Wertheimer et al 1996, Kunaver et al 2004, Mozetic 2004, Morales et al 2006, Sharnina et al 1996, Tu et al 1994, Prabaharan et al 2005. It has been reported that plasma treatment can improve polymer-polymer adhesion (Clark et al 1979, Wertheimer et al 1996, the best results being obtained when using oxygen plasma (Carlsson 1991, Felix et al 1994, Couto et al 2002. The purpose of our investigation (Fras Zemljič et al 2008) was evaluating to what extent oxygen plasma treatment could improve the chitosan adsorption, and in this way, the antimicrobial activities of chitosan covered fabrics.…”
