Overview

This tutorial book on plasma treatment and the deposition of polymers differs from others on the subject due to the great effort devoted to giving a rationale for: the bases of plasma polymerization; the diagnostic procedures and techniques for both gas phase and surfaces; process control techniques; ageing and surface dynamics; reactor architectures; most important industrial applications in, e.g., plastic coatings, food packaging, optical coatings, paper and web treatments, corrosion protection, treatments for prostheses, grafts, biomaterials, etc. A selection of internationally respected authors, drawn from academia, industry and national research institutions, strike a balance between industrial applications and economic issues, the fundamental bases of plasma physics and chemistry, diagnostic and control techniques, and reactor architecture. Audience: The tutorial and self-consistent treatment means that the book can be read by a wide community, including undergraduate and graduate students, senior scientists, industrial researchers and managers who wish to gain a deeper knowledge of the field.
