This review provides a comprehensive overview of scientific research on plasma treatment of polymer powders over the last 40 years. The current state of the art is described with special focus on basic research in the laboratory and commercially available technologies in industrial applications. Different reactor systems with low‐pressure and atmospheric pressure plasma are presented. Then, numerous application examples of plasma‐treated polymer powders are presented together with a brief overview of the experimental test results. Furthermore, the effects of the process parameters on the final properties of the polymer powders are discussed. Attempts are made to determine similarity parameters and correlations between the generated surface functionalities. Finally, some suggestions for future research are given.

Active macromolecular free radicals were generated on polypropylene (PP) fiber surfaces by argon plasma irradiation, and surface-modified PP fibers (PP-g-St fibers) were prepared by in situ grafting reaction of styrene monomers (St). The prepared samples were characterized by Fourier transform infrared, NMR, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. Effects of reaction parameters on grafting percentage were studied, and adsorption capacities of PP-g-St fibers for benzene, toluene, and xylene (BTX) were evaluated. Regeneration adsorption efficiencies after adsorption of pure BTX and BTX emulsion and solution in water were explored. The results indicated that, using pure St as the monomer, the optimum input power, irradiation time, and grafting reaction time are 90 W, 3 min, and 3 h, respectively, and the grafting percentage of St reached 5.7% when pure St was used. The characterization results demonstrated that St was grafted onto the surface of the PP fibers. Compared to pristine PP fibers, the adsorption capacities of PP-g-St fibers toward toluene and xylene emulsions and solutions in water increased. In addition, regeneration adsorption efficiencies of modified fibers remained >90% after six cycles of regeneration adsorption experiments, which showed excellent regeneration ability.

To increase the mechanical properties of recycled carbon fiber-reinforced polypropylene (PP) composites, recycled carbon fibers (RCF) were subjected to atmospheric plasma treatment at different plasma powers (100, 200, and 300 W). The changes on surface topography and roughness of RCF were examined by atomic force microscopy. Plasma treatment of RCF increased the roughness value of RCF. The variation of surface elemental compositions and tensile strength of RCF were determined by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and tensile test, respectively. Plasma-treated RCF-reinforced PP composites were fabricated using high speed thermokinetic mixer. Plasma treatment of RCF at 100 W increased the tensile and flexural strength values of RCF-reinforced PP composites considerably by 17 and 11%, respectively. However, plasma treatment of RCF at higher plasma powers (200 W and 300 W) decreased tensile and flexural strength values of composites because of the etching of RCF.
