Industrial applications: Safety and reliability in the aviation industry – Creating high-tech surfaces using Plasmatreat’s Openair® plasma pre-treatment processes

Removal of mould release agents

Modern long-distance aircraft are built with completely novel materials and combinations of different materials, otherwise known as composites. These are layered materials usually composed of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic built up in moulds and cured or hardened at relatively high temperatures. This process leaves residual mould release agents on the composite materials that can interfere with paint and glue adhesion.  Using Plasmatreat’s Openair ® plasma technology these mould release agents remaining after the composite production process are effectively removed allowing subsequent painting or gluing work guaranteed to be of the highest quality.

Pretreatment for corrosion prevention

Riveting is one the most common ways of joining aircraft parts. Enormous demands with regard to corrosion protection are imposed on these connecting elements due to the high levels of atmospheric moisture and extremely variable temperatures to which they are exposed. Pretreatment by Plasmatreat’s plasma technology is a simple and effective means of efficiently and reliably preparing superior corrosion resistant surfaces.
