“…4 shows the effect of plasma treatment and ageing process as a function of time on water contact angles as a representative for surface wettability. The presence of hydrophilic oxygenrelated functional groups, which acts primarily to adsorp water molecules, increases wetting property of the surface and the water contact angle decreases correspondingly [16,17]. In the effect of plasma treatment time, the measurement demonstrates that the average water contact angle of the polyimide without treatment was 81.58°and reduced to 17.42, 15.52, 12.56, 9.83 and 7.25°for polyimide treated by helium gas DBD plasma (4 l/min) with plasma power of 200 W for 15, 20, 25, 30 and 60 s, respectively (Fig.…”
