Abstract
Surface modification with plasma has been widely applied to polymeric materials. This treatment is intended to improve the surface properties of the polymer including its wettability and adhesiveness. The aim of this paper is to provide a review of the literature on the surface treatment of polymers with plasma, which focuses on the effects of adhesive and surface tribology properties. The related surface properties are also reviewed in order to strengthen the review of adhesive properties and tribology. Various types of plasma treatments that have been reviewed reported that plasma can be effectively used to improve surface properties, especially adhesive and tribological properties. On a small surface treatment has been developed plasma jet treatment which has been widely applied in biomedical applications.
