Description based on print version record and CIP data provided by publisher. "The Atmospheric Pressure Plasma (APP) treatment for polymer surface modification has attracted much attention recently, owing to its advantages over other techniques and its ability to improve adhesion without tampering with polymer's bulk properties. Focusing on the utility of APP treatment for enhancing polymer adhesion, this book covers the latest development in this important and enabling technology, providing profound insights from many top researchers on the design and functions of various types of reactors, as well as current and potential applications of APP treatment"-- Provided by publisher. 2013 Text 1 online resource. http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/book/10.1002/9781118747308 eng Adhesion and Adhesives: Fundamental and Applied Aspects Adhesion and Adhesives: Fundamental and Applied Aspects.
