Abstract

The plasma, ionized gas state, is generally composed as the 4th state in the universe. Generating the plasma artificially has been studied by spending energy and it has been applied so much in human's life. There are several merits to modify the surface of polymer using plasma. Above all, plasma maintains the properties of polymer itself, but changes the properly of polymer surface only. Also, it is the environmentally fraternized because there are no waste processing from organic solvent. Furthermore, it is possible that continuous automated-processing in case of high-pressure plasma. Therefore, we have tried the reforming of surface to rise the adhesive strength between the material of polymer, and have experimented rising the adhesive strength through peel strength by virtue of processing time and using gas, of course, confirmed the change of polymer surface through measuring the contact angle analysis and scanning electron microscopy(SEM).
