“…Water spray application in air conditioning [2], fire suppression [3][4][5][6][7], gas cooling [8,9] and agricultural irrigation systems [10,11] can be considered as traditional. Heat and mass transfer processes are applied for surface treatment [12][13][14] and protection [15][16][17][18], cooling towers [19][20][21]9,22], washing processes [23][24][25], water freezing and crystallization [26][27][28], aerosols [29,30], gas turbines [31][32][33][34][35], heat recovery from humid flue gas [36,37], NO x reduction in fuel combustion [38][39][40], water and fuel emulsions [41][42][43][44], plasma technique [45][46][47] and other thermal technologies.

“…A high contact angle alone is insufficient for this application; the surface must also be non-adhesive. Droplets must trickle along the exclusion net (rather than pass through it), which is difficult when water adheres to the surface, as mentioned by Li et al 12 .…”

“…The deposition can be initiated by heat (thermally activated/TACVD) 28 29 , by plasma (plasma enhanced / PECVD) 30 31 or by light (photo-initiated/PICVD) 32 33 . Heat initiation is problematic with temperature-sensitive substrates such as polymers 25 34 , whereas plasma is plagued with scale-up issues due to specific operating requirements 12 25 35 36 37 . PICVD is an alternative with its low energy treatment and wide spectrum of possible variations 24 35 .…”

Apple growers face new challenges to produce organic apples and now many cover orchards with high-density polyethylene (HDPE) nets to exclude insects, rather than spraying insecticides. However, rainwater- associated wetness favours the development of apple scabs, Venturia inaequalis, whose lesions accumulate on the leaves and fruit causing unsightly spots. Treating the nets with a superhydrophobic coating should reduce the amount of water that passes through the net. Here we treat HDPE and polyethylene terephthalate using photo-initiated chemical vapour deposition (PICVD). We placed polymer samples in a quartz tube and passed a mixture of H2 and CO through it while a UVC lamp (254 nm) illuminated the surface. After the treatment, the contact angle between water droplets and the surface increased by an average of 20°. The contact angle of samples placed 70 cm from the entrance of the tube was higher than those at 45 cm and 20 cm. The PICVD-treated HDPE achieved a contact angle of 124°. Nets spray coated with a solvent-based commercial product achieved 180° but water ingress was, surprisingly, higher than that for nets with a lower contact angle.

“…Generally, the frequency range of RF frequency is located in 1-100 MHz, most commonly at 13.56 MHz, with the wavelengths of 3-300 m larger than the dimensions of reactor. The RF power supply coupled into plasma can be via two couple modes, oscillating electric fields or oscillating magnetic fields [43], which are named as CCP and ICP, respectively [44,45]. The schematic of typical RF setup system is shown in figure 3.…”

This review describes the application of non-thermal plasma (NTP) technology for high barrier layer fabrication in packaging area. NTP technology is considered to be the most prospective approaches for the barrier layer fabrication over the past decades due to unpollution, high speed, low-costing. The applications of NTP technology have achieved numerous exciting results in high barrier packaging area. Now it seemly demands a detailed review to summarize the past works and direct the future developments. This review focuses on the different NTP resources applied in the high barrier area, the role of plasma surface modification on packaging film surface properties, and the deposition of different barrier coatings based on NTP technology. In particular, this review emphasizes the cutting-edge technologies of NTP on interlayer deposition with organic, inorganic for multilayer barriers fabrication. The future prospects of NTP technology in high barrier film areas are also described.
