Abstract

The methods of surface modification of ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMPE) by the low-temperature plasma are considered. Installations for treatment of polymers with various types electric discharges as well as the methods for studying the changes occurring on the polymer surface are described. The experimental results are given concerning properties of 100 μm UHMWPE film before and after treatment by the low pressure air dc discharge. The film samples were placed at the anode. The measurements of the peel resistance (T-test according to ASTM 1876-01) of adhesion joint of modified UHMWPE with polyimide and polytetrafluoroethylene films were obtained using polyurethane adhesive.
