Read MoreAnalysis of New Flame Treatment Technology for Surface Modification and Adhesion Promotion
Abstract Surface treatment technologies are commonly used to enhance the adhesion potential of base flexible packaging substrates for the application of performance adhesives, coatings and inks. The relationship between ribbon burner flame treatment technology and enhanced velocity (EV) port burner technology, and the degree of surface modification for adhesion promotion, is compared. Results showed that…
Read MoreUnderstanding the Difference Between Blown-arc and Blown-ion Plasma Systems
Air plasma surface treating systems are divided into two categories; blown arc and blown ion. Enercon’s Blown-arc™ Series air plasma technology is formed by blowing atmospheric air past two high-voltage powered electrodes and is sometimes referred to as corona treatment. The electrical discharge positively charges the ion particles surrounding it. Through direct contact, these particles positively charge the…
