(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
A simple fabrication method for preparation of surfaces able to switch from superhydrophobic to superhydrophilic state in a reversible and fast way is described. A self-assembled monolayer (SAM) consisting of quaternary ...
Effect of barrier plasma pre-treatment on polyester films and their adhesive properties on oak wood
(
North Carolina State University
, 2016 , Article)
A barrier plasma, created at atmospheric pressure, was used to improve the surface and adhesive properties of polyester (PES) film with respect to wood using polyurethane adhesives. The modification of PES film surfaces ...
