The highly reactive stream of chemical species generated The highly reactive stream of chemical species generated in the plasma increases surface energy resulting in in the plasma increases surface energy resulting in stronger bonds.stronger bonds.

How does this work?How does this work?Increase in surface energy promotes Increase in surface energy promotes

better wettability.better wettability.

The water drop tests demonstrates The water drop tests demonstrates this effect.this effect.

No treatment After plasma

Low Surface Energy = poor adhesion

The water drop glides on the surface.

High Surface Energy = strong adhesion

The water drops sticks on the surface.
