Corona treatment for adhesion promotion

Back To Surface Treatment

Corona treatment is a process by which plastic surfaces are modified to increase their surface energy.  This increases a surfaces' "wettability" and allows adhesives and sealants to obtain a greater bond strength.

This process produces a large amount of electro-magnetic interference (EMI).  In the process of going through 3rd party CE testing for emissions and immunity, we have learned how to mitigate the effects of EMI in our systems.  As a result, we can implement this process with a high degree of reliability.  Other electronic systems may be influenced adversely by the effects of EMI.  This includes things such as pace-makers and other health electronics related equipment.  Even though we are manipulating a transducer that can be hand-held, we recommend keeping all other electronic devices at least three feet away from the transducer.

This device also creates a small amount of ozone.  It is recommended that this system be used in an area with adequate ventilation.
