Abstract:A coaxial shaped atmospheric pressure plasma torch has been used to deposit the millimetric scale plasma polymer. A detailed experiment has revealed the appearance of three different kinetic regimes with distinct coating morphology: no deposition, circular dot and circular ring formation. The ratio of precursor carrier gas flow to the plasma species carrier gas flow has been identified as crucial factor to separate the three regimes. Further experiments regarding the influence of precursor mass fraction on the… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
