The growing market for sensors, Internet of Things, and wearable devices is fueling the
development of low-cost energy-harvesting materials and systems. Film based …

Three-dimensional printing (3DP) is a versatile method to produce scaffolds for tissue
engineering. In 3DP the solid is created by the reaction of a liquid selectively sprayed onto a …

A study on the plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition of amorphous inorganic oxides
SiO2 and Al2O3 on polypropylene (PP) was carried out with respect to growth taking place …

Alucone films were employed as interlayers to minimize stress caused by thermal expansion
mismatch between Al2O3 films grown by atomic layer deposition (ALD) and Teflon …

Oxygen and water vapor barrier coatings were made by plasma enhanced chemical vapor
deposition on a polymer multilayer substrate. Plasma deposition was realized on the …

The purpose of this research paper was to improve the water and gas barrier properties of
polycarbonate (PC) by the deposition of organosilicon thin films through radio-frequency …

Polyolefins are well-known and the most commonly used polymers worldwide. Advantages
like outstanding mechanical properties, chemical resistance, low cost, and processability are …

Due to their macromolecular structure, plastics are limited in their scope of application
whenever high barrier functionality against oxygen and water vapour permeation is …

New data shed light on the mechanisms of film growth from low power, low pressure
plasmas of organic compounds. These data rebalance the widely held view that plasma …

Silica‐like nanoparticles are produced from four different organosilicon monomers HMDSO,
TMDSO, TEOS and TMOS in a continuous non‐equilibrium plasma reactor. The …
