Hydrophobic - Producing water-repellant surfaces • Low pressure plasma systems

Hydrophobic is the physical property in which a molecule will repel water. One property of a these types of molecules is it tends to be non-polar. With plasma treatments, you can increase the water resistant tendencies of materials. You can also decrease these tendencies to make a material hydrophilic. These desired effects can be achieved through the use of one of our low pressure plasma systems.

To learn more about the use of plasma in manufacturing, please read our eBook titled "Manufacturer’s Surface Activation Guide for Improved Adhesion."
