Hydrophobic surfaces are often used to reduce wetting of surfaces by water. In particular,
superhydrophobic surfaces are highly desired for several applications due to their …

Abstract Atmospheric Pressure Plasmas (APPs) are promising alternatives to their low-
pressure counterparts for material surface treatment due to their potential for cost-effective …

We introduce the oxidation of long aliphatic alkanes using non-thermal, atmospheric plasma
processing as an eco-friendly route for organic synthesis. A pulsed dielectric barrier …

Plasma‐activated water (PAW) was investigated as a “green” antimicrobial washing agent
for decontamination of ready‐to‐eat rocket salads. PAW was generated using a dielectric …

We present an alternative route to enhance antibacterial activity of polymer matrix
nanocomposites that incorporate biocidal nanomaterials, using open-air atmospheric …

We studied the epoxy polymer surface modification using air plasma treatment in a Gliding
Arc (GA) plasma reactor and a pulsed Dielectric Barrier Discharge (DBD). We employed …

We present the concept of the combined synthesis of organic–inorganic nanocomposite
coatings and atmospheric pressure plasma etching/nanotexturing for tailoring the surface …

This paper reports the optimization of a two-step atmospheric pressure plasma process to
modify the surface properties of a polyurethane (PU) foam and, specifically, to prepare a …

The atmospheric pressure non-equilibrium plasma treatment of open-cell polyurethane
foams is carried out using dielectric barrier discharges fed with helium and oxygen mixtures …

Surface characterization is critical for understanding the processes used for preparing
catalysts, sorbents, and membranes. Nonthermal plasma (NTP) is a process that achieves …
