“…Natural and synthetic textile fibers have been treated with atmospheric pressure plasma systems to alter wettability, surface roughness, chemical composition, and dye uptake [6,[10][11][12][13][14][15]. We could find only one report about the air plasma treatment of hair fibers to alter surface chemistry [16].…”

Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Jet Treatment of Human Hair Fibers

Human hair fibers in virgin and dyed forms were treated with atmospheric pressure helium, helium/ oxygen, argon, and argon/oxygen plasma jets at 20 W of power. The effects of 10-min plasma treatment on surface morphology and chemistry were studied by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, respectively. The plasma treatment was quite effective for removing the organic residues from the surface and creating oxidized functional groups. Helium plasma had a mild cleaning effect on the surfaces while argon/oxygen plasma had the strongest corrosive effect. Mild hydrogen peroxide treatment for the same duration had neither the cleaning nor the oxidizing power of the plasma jets. These types of plasma jets have the potential to replace peroxide treatment. The corrosive jets can be used to restore dyed hair fibers. In addition, the jets can be used to clean the surfaces of hair fibers to prepare samples for analytical investigations where the organic residues may induce problems.

“…On cellophane film, it has been demonstrated (Martinez-Gomez et al 2009) that the oxygen and argon plasma species generate reactive free radical sites on the substrate surfaces that can interact with stable molecules under in situ conditions to produce amine functionalities. Other authors (Poll et al 2001;Wang et al 2007) studied the penetration of plasma into more complex surfaces like textile fabrics by using multilayers of fabrics. The kind of plasma used (atmospheric, low pressure, jet, etc.…”

The surface of cotton fabrics was functionalized through corona plasma treatments and/or by cationising the whole of the fibre with an epihalohydrin. The effects of both treatments, individually and in combination are analyzed through wettability studies, by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and also by dyeing studies with an hetero bis functional reactive dye. Plasma improved wetting properties, exhaustion of the dyebaths and K/S corr of the fabrics through surface functionalisation. Cationising of the cotton highly increased the exhaustion of the dyebaths and produced a dramatic improvement in K/S corr . Plasma treatment previous to cationising increased the impregnation of the fabrics, but the effects of both treatments on dyeing parameters are additive only in column water rise and generally the effects obtained by cationising with the epihalohydrin prevail. The differences between both treatments are discussed in terms of surface functionalisation of the cotton fibres.

“…The average roughness decreased and the surface seems to be smoother. AFM analyses, reported as a result of treatment of polymers and textiles by helium or mixture of helium and nitrogen, revealed the creation of granular structure on the surface at nanoscale domain and the change of surface roughness after the plasma treatment [3,5,8,9,21]. Examining the AFM images of different parts of surface reveals that, although the effect of plasma at different parts seems to be different apparently, all of them show that the plasma jet removes a nanoscale non-uniform layer from the surface and that a non-uniform etching process occurred.…”

“…Their physical and chemical properties after plasma treatment were examined in detail as well. But there are a few studies investigated the effect of plasma on the properties of non-carbonic base surfaces and needs more investigations [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. The aim of this paper is to utilize atmospheric pressure helium plasma jet on Raw and Frit glaze surfaces to improve their paintability and explore the effect of the plasma on their surface properties which seems not fully understood so far.…”

Surface modification of Raw and Frit glazes by non-thermal helium plasma jet

2015

In this study, non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ) was utilized to improve the adhesion of Raw and Frit glazes. These glazes are widely used in industry to make chinaware, decorative dishes and tiles applied at wall and floor. As they should be painted before use, increasing their adhesive properties leads to a better paint durability. Electrical and optical characteristics of the plasma jet are investigated to optimize for efficient treatment. Contact angle measurement and surface energy calculation demonstrate a drastic increase after the plasma treatment indicating wettability and paintability enhancement. Moreover, atomic force microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses were performed on the specimens to explore the influence of helium plasma jet on the physical and chemical properties of the glazes, microscopically. AFM analysis reveals surface etching resulted from the bombardment of the solid surfaces by the APPJ using helium fed gas. The process aims to enhance adhesive properties of glaze surfaces.
