Surface modification of glass and glass fibres by plasma surface treatment

Abstract

In this study, glass and glass fibres were treated to dry interfacial treatment by the use of plasma technology. It has been presented that the optimum parameters for the best wettability of the samples at the time of plasma generation were an oxygen atmosphere, 0.1 Torr system pressure, 100 W discharge power and 3 min discharge time. Also, the surface resistance rate and dielectric property were improved. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
