So this book is not merely a collection of papers, rather represents the highest standard of publication. The book is divided into three parts: 1. Plasma Surface Modification Techniques; 2. Other \/ Miscellaneous Surface Modification Techniques; and 3. General Papers. The topics covered include: low pressure plasma surface modification of a variety of polymers using various gases; atmospheric pressure plasma treatment; improvement of stain release properties of fabrics; modification of electrostatic properties of polymers; photon-based processes for surface modification of fibers; excimer UV light treatment; excimer laser surface treatment; low-energy ion treatment; photo-grafting and photo-curing; metallization of treated polymers; chemical (wet) functionalization of polymers; adhesion of paints to thermoplastic substrates; polymer release surfaces; nanolithography in polymer films; gas barrier properties of ceramic layers on polymers; and modification of interphase layer and relevance to adhesion. \u003cbr\u003eThis volume and its predecessors containing plentiful information should serve as a comprehensive source of latest R\u0026amp;D activity in the highly technologically important arena of polymer surface modification. Anyone interested â€“centrally or peripherallyâ€“ in knowing or learning about the various ways to modify polymer surfaces should find this book of immense value.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45576129675502,"sku":"9789067644037","price":470.4,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/polymer-surface-modification-relevance-to-adhesion-volume-3-hardback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
