Plasma surface modification of polycarbonate and polypropylene substrates for biomedical electrodes

The effects of surface plasma treatments on the properties of PP and PC substrates were studied. Main results showed that the 0.48 Pa Ar treatment promoted the most favorable changes: roughness increased from 15 to 17 nm for PC and from 12 to 30 nm for PP, while the CA lowered from 958 to 598 and fr...
