Abstract

The surfaces of organic and inorganic substrates, such as polyethylene film and metals, respectively, can be modified by cold plasma deposition of difluorocarbene or trifluoromethyl radical specie generated by subjecting precursor vapor, for example, perfluorocyclobutane or hexafluoroethane, to a radio frequency electrical glow discharge.
