by Joseph DiGiacomo and Scott Sabreen Adhesion problems are widespread throughout the plastics industry and are increasing as metal components are being replaced by advanced engineering polymers. Many plastics have chemically inert and nonporous surfaces with low surface tensions that make bonding difficult. Most plastics are hydrophobic and are not naturally wettable. Surface … [Read more...] about Flame Plasma Surface Treatment Improves Adhesion of Polymers
