Since the 1980s, functionalized plasma polymer films have attracted a considerable
attention owing to their promising utilization in a wide range of modern applications. For …

Recently, plasma-polymerization at atmospheric pressure has become a promising
technology due to its reduced equipment costs and its possibility of in-line processing. This …

SiOxCyHz films are deposited by radio frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor
deposition (PECVD) using a mixture of HMDSO and oxygen as source gases. The gas …

Hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO) and hexamethyldisilazane (HMDSN) were used as
organosilicon reagents for PE-CVD of thin films under filamentary barrier-discharge …

This paper is devoted to the optical emission spectra (OES) of low pressure (1 mTorr–1 Torr)
plasmas created in tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO) used …

In this study, the plasma torch is utilized for the preparation of highly pure ZrO 2 from zircon
(ZrSiO 4). The incorporation of H 2 into the discharge gas Ar improves the plasma physical …

Optical emission and Fourier transform infrared absorption diagnostics have been carried
out in hexamethyldisiloxane/oxygen RF discharges for studying the effects of the feed …

Because of its excellent properties, carbon steel is a material widely used in several sectors.
However, it is easily corroded when exposed to the environment. Seeking to remedy this …

The extensive application of biodegradable polymers in the food packaging industries was
partially limited due to poor barrier performances. In the present work, we investigated the …

The variation of power, pressure and O2/HMDSO ratio in an RF plasma was carried out to
examine deposition rates and to optimize SiOx film properties for the coating of polymers …
