Added value with plasma coating – precise functionalization of textiles with PlasmaPlus®
Fabric
can acquire entirely new material qualities by creating new
functionalities, like self-cleaning finishes, bioactive surfaces, and
flame retardant properties, for example. Entirely new application
possibilities are the result. In many cases, conventional materials
can also be replaced by less expensive alternatives.
Textiles
with functional coatings are required for the manufacture of sports
and recreational clothing, protective clothing, barrier textiles,
medical or hygiene textiles or for membrane in the context of textile
architecture.
PlasmaPlus®
from Plasmatreat offers a particularly effective process for this
that is easy to integrate inline, with the widest range of
nano-coatings for fabric that can be economically applied.
PlasmaPlus® coating offers many advantages and options for functionalizing fabric:
- High deposition rate with low material stress
- Process that can be universally modeled, from hydrophilic to hydrophobic
- Application of coats that repel oil and water
- Creation of coatings with long-term stability
