Plasma activation

From April 26-27, 2023, relyon plasma will present the piezobrush® PZ3-i at the 43. ak-adp workshop in Leipzig as part of the #ZukunftADP 2021.

When using PAA® technology, the ignited plasma bridge can be used for electrical grounding of conductive substrates.

Paint stripping and cleaning with plasma is possible with the high performance system plasmabrush® PB3 of relyon plasma.

Summary of an interesting publication on basic research on the possible use of plasma as an adjuvant therapy for head and neck carcinomas.

Takao et al. investigate in vivo and in vitro the effects of plasma treatment on the bioactivity of zirconia/alumina nanocomposites (NANOZR) used as implant materials.

A visualization of activated area on polymers is done with test ink to evaluate atmospheric pressure plasma jets (APPJ). The shrinkage characteristics of the test ink are collected using activation image recording (AIR).

The highlight of this year’s trade show appearance at Bondexpo is the presentation of the compact integration solution piezobrush® PZ3-i for the first time ever. The cold plasma device is designed for integration into existing production lines and is therefore compact, safe, and efficient. Thus, it is ideally suited for pre-treatment prior to gluing, printing, and laminating.

Plasma treatment is used to activate the surfaces and thus optimally prepare them for the grafting process so that they become self-sterile.

Due to the postponement of the IDS, the world’s leading international trade fair for the dental industry, relyon plasma will be hosting webinars to present all the latest plasma innovations in the dental industry.

The Max Planck Institute for Astronomy uses the piezobrush PZ2 for plasma activation of CFRP and glass/glass ceramic adhesive surfaces.

Without the application of plasma technologies, many industrial processes cannot be realized, or can only be realized at great expense. That is why Relyon Plasma has developed a concept to automate the handling of plasma generators – with robots of Kawasaki.

Plasma technology in 3D printing – Bonding individual parts with significantly improved adhesion

Surface energy  Determination of surface energy by means of test inks and contact angle measurement, enhancement through plasma treatment Wettability is of major importance for all kinds of surface treatments like printing, varnishing and gluing. It describes the behaviour of liquids on solid surfaces which is dependent on the surface tension of the liquid and […]

If plasma activation is used for composite materials during the production of beverage and food packaging,
very high process speeds will be required.

Plasmatool, the high-efficient plasma handheld device for surface treatment. The perfect tool for flexible and easy surface treatment in industrial environments.

Plastics are usually characterized by inert surfaces with surface energies between 20 and 40 mN/m. In order to wet a surface, however, the surface energy of the polymer must exceed the one of the paint or the adhesive. This condition can be achieved through a plasma treatment of the surface and is called “activation“ in plasma technology.

The high temperatures which are reached in most plasma applications make many users wonder about process safety, especially when highly sensitive materials are treated. This article addresses open questions concerning temperature and heat conduction during plasma applications and cites critical examples which substantiate the suitability of plasma for temperature-critical processes.

Our Plasmabrush® system, particularly the PS2000 high voltage unit, supplies meaningful digital process data from which valuable process information can be gained based on our years of expertise. In close collaboration with you, we define the operating points for your production steps and provide a working area designed to achieve the desired results.

PDD® Plasma technology improves surface texture and wettability. It is suitable for integration into 3D printers of all kinds and categories of performance.

The new nozzles for piezobrush PZ2 enable applications which were not possible with the standard version of this product.

The Plasmasystem FG1-01 is an integrated solution for those applications where several plasmasystems are required. For plasma generation, the necessary PS2000® power supplies are driven by the control system.

To activate electronic components we designed the floating A250 nozzle. This nozzle for sensitive materials is used with the plasmabrush® PB3 System.

In orthopedics PEEK implants are standard. Meanwhile, dental implants are made increasingly from the high-performance plastic.

For the functionalization of PEEK implants, we have developed a transportable and easy-to-use plasma device (piezobrush® PZ2).
