Corona & Plasma Surface Treatment Systems for Improved Adhesion

Bonding difficulties are common in manufacturing due to the chemical structure of many materials, which naturally resist adhesion. Plasma and corona surface treatment eliminate these challenges by modifying surface energy to improve wetting and bonding strength. Although the alteration is invisible, the treated surface dramatically improves overcoming many challenges in manufacturing.

3DT’s systems treat a wide range of materials, optimizing adhesion for ink, paint, adhesives, and coatings before decoration, finishing, or part assembly. Materials that readily improve surface tension with surface treatment are: most polymers, glass, composites, metal and paperboard.

Some Typical Applications:

Improved ink adhesion on plastic components

Secure bonding of plastic tubing to medical devices Bonding layers in sport flooring

Enhanced wetting for glue on silicon window seals

Powerful bonding of layers in sports flooring
