Elaboration of a fire retardant coating for polyamide-6 using cold plasma polymerization of a fluorinated acrylate

Investigation of metal absorption and antibacterial activity on cotton fabric modified by low temperature plasma

“…2. As shown, an increase in absorbance at the 1,720 cm -1 (C = O) band and 3,400 cm -1 (O-H) band, 2,900 cm -1 (N-H) (positive) group and 1,080-1,300 cm -1 (C-O) group was noticed after plasma treatment (Nastase et al 2005;Carmen et al 2005;Errifai et al 2004). These functional groups were produced on the fabric by the reaction between the active species induced by the plasma in the gas phase and the C-surface atoms.…”

Plasma-induced graft-polymerisation of ethylene glycol methacrylate phosphate on polyethylene films

“…Moreover, plasmas of volatile organic or organosilicon compound lead to the deposition of a thin polymer film onto the surface of the material. Plasma polymerisation of organosilicon compounds and fluorinated monomers has been investigated for deposition of fire-retardant coatings [7,8]. Shi studied plasma grafting of acrylic acid and acrylamide in order to achieve flame retardancy of EVA copolymers [9,10].…”

Direct Condensation Reaction for Grafting of Polyethylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether on Poly(Methacrylic Acid-co-Methyl Methacrylate) for Application in Biomedical Engineering

“…For instance, plasma surface modification of polyamide 6 is frequently reported to increase its wettability [10][11][12][13][14] or to improve cell adhesion and proliferation on poly(L-lactide) and poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) [15]. Chemical treatment of biomaterials consists of various methods for both grafting [16][17][18] and crosslinking [19][20][21], together with the structural modifications such as hydro-genation [22], halogenation [23], and hydrohalogenation [24,25] which are widely described in the literature.…”
