Effect of low-pressure microwave plasma discharges on the surface of vulcanized rubbers before bonding with a silicone sheet

Technical Paper - In this work, the surface of vulcanized rubbers was treated by a low-pressure microwave plasma process to enhance the adhesion with a silicone adhesive The plasma reactor was fed with nitrogen, oxygen or synthetic air. Scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy observations associated with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry,...
