Hydrophobic modification of bacterial cellulose using oxygen plasma treatment and chemical vapor deposition

A new strategy for the surface modification of bacterial cellulose (BC) through the combination of oxygen plasma deposition and silanization with trichloromethyl silane (TCMS) is described. The combined use of the two techniques modifies both the surface roughness and energy and therefore maximizes...
