The Mechanical Properties of Metal Oxide Coated Polyester Films Paid Members Public
Presented by B.M. Henry, University of Oxford This communication reports on a study of the microstructure, mechanical and gas barrier properties of PECVD metal oxide coatings on heat stabilised (HS) PET [poly(ethylene terephthalate)],, primer-coated HS PET, filled PET and PEN [poly(ethylene naphthalate)] substrates. The coatings are highly
Contribution of Plasma in Vacuum Al Metallized Polyester Film Paid Members Public
Presented by B.N. Gupta, Polyplex Corporation Ltd. Different methods are available for surface preparation/treatment in polymeric film in converting industry, out of which, plasma surface treatment is rapidly gaining acceptance as a commercial tool for modifying the surface properties of polymer films for different conversion processes like metallizing,
Reducing Cost with Proper Slit Roll Handling Paid Members Public
Presented by Fred Gum, AET Films
Understand Laminate Slitting Paid Members Public
Presented by Dominique Gallou, Zincometal
Doped Ceramic Thin Films: A New Approach to In-Line Depositions Paid Members Public
Presented by John Felts, Nano Scale Surface Systems, Inc. With the advent of “Nano” technology, there has been considerable focus on structures and designs, but little attention to how the required “novel” materials can (or will) be made in production environments. One class of materials that will be necessary for
Nano-Composite Polymer Optical Coatings Paid Members Public
Presented by Tom Faris, Vampire Optical Coatings, Inc. Traditionally broadband anti-reflection coatings and index matching coatings for use with high performance transparent conductive oxide coated films have been prepared via multi-layer dielectric materials deposited under vacuum. These coatings typically have thicknesses between 850 and 2000 Angstroms, with relatively low production
Target effective emission coefficients during reactive sputtering of oxides and nitrides Paid Members Public
Presented by R. De Gryse, Taiyuan University of Technology In the field of magnetron sputtering, reactive sputtering is becoming more and more important as it allows to widen the scope of materials that can be deposited. Not only high quality metal coatings can be deposited, but also a wide variety
AFM Studies of Corona Treated Biaxially Oriented PET Film Paid Members Public
Presented by Edwin C. Culbertson, Mitsubishi Polyester Film A sixteen run designed experiment was performed on biaxially oriented PET film with line speed and corona treater power setting as variables. The corona treater gap was held constant. Using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), surface topography and compositional variations were measured on
