Comparison of SF6 and CF4 Plasma Treatment for Surface Hydrophobization of PET Polymer

The fluorination of the polymer polyethylene terephthalate in plasma created from SF6 or CF4 gas at various pressures was investigated. The surface was analysed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and water contact angle measurements, whereas the plasma was characterized by optical emission spectros...
