Effect of Wood Surface Modification by Atmospheric-Pressure Plasma on Waterborne Coating Adhesion

In this study, the effect of an atmospheric-pressure plasma treatment on the surface properties of sugar maple (Acer saccharum March.) and black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) was analyzed by contact angle measurement and a water-based coating pull-off testing. The plasma gases used were Ar, N2, CO2,...
