Modeling and experimental investigation of a Wurster type fluidized bed reactor coupled with an air atmospheric pressure plasma jet for the surface treatment of polypropylene particles

Abstract: Polypropylene (PP) particles are used for various purposes, however, the good mechanical properties of PP are counterbalanced by a poor wettability. The wettability of PP particles was therefore improved by an atmospheric pressure blown-arc air plasma jet treatment in a new designed homemade Wurster fluidized bed reactor (Wurster-FBR). This reactor, was used to treat 200 g of particles per batch. The surface free energy of PP particles determined by the Zisman method showed an increase from 30.7 to 38.6 mN m −… Show more
