MENOMONEE FALLS, WI - Enercon announces development of Plasma3™, a proprietary atmospheric glow discharge surface treatment system for functionalizing narrow and wide nonwoven webs. The Enercon Plasma3™ system can modify the entire fiber network of webs with dual-side treatment. Uniformity of treatment is achieved and functionalization is precisely controlled to promote many hydrophilic surface properties. Process chemistry consumption costs are extremely low, reacting in the discharge area and yielding high and long-lasting surface energy to provide improved adhesion of dyes, inks, coatings and adhesives.
Enercon's Plasma3™ atmospheric plasma surface treatment technology can produce exceptional nonwoven performance. Custom-designed solutions can include improved pigmentation and coating adhesion for wipes, padding and electrical & thermal insulators using both natural and synthetic fiber blends.
Enercon Industries Corporation, headquartered in Menomonee Falls, WI, is a major manufacturer of equipment for the plastics and packaging industries.
