Surface energy and chemistry of ethylene-propylene-diene elastomer (EPDM) treated by plasma immersion ion implantation

    Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 22 - Publication in policy or professional journal

    Abstract

    An overview is given on the changes in surface energy and its correlation to the induced chemical changes in EPDM surfaces after Ar+ ion treatment by the plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) technique. Focus is on the structural transformation of silicone polymer surfaces to a ceramic-like surface by argon and nitrogen ion implantation at high doses using the PIII technique.
