  • Patent number: 10071397
    Abstract: A pharmaceutical packaging comprising a silicone-free lubricating film of crosslinked organic molecules. The method for producing the pharmaceutical packaging comprises: applying a silicone-free organic fluid as a film on a surface of a hollow substrate for the lubricating film; placing the substrate in a vacuum reactor; evacuating the vacuum reactor; generating an alternating electromagnetic field by an AC voltage source; and introducing the alternating electromagnetic field into the interior of the substrate, a field strength thereof in the gas which is present in or introduced into the evacuated cavity of the substrate being sufficient to cause a homogeneous glow discharge under the pressure prevailing in the cavity of the substrate.

  • Publication number: 20110158826
    Abstract: A feed method and a feed device, comprising a vacuum pump for evacuation of a storage vessel for a precursor which is solid and/or liquid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure and for feeding the gaseous precursor which has been vaporized by evacuation, a first line section on the inlet side of the vacuum pump in order to produce a connection between the vacuum pump and the storage vessel for the solid and/or liquid precursor, at least one second line section for supplying carrier gas to the vacuum pump, and a monitoring device which can be connected to the first and the second line section and, during operation of the apparatus, provides open-loop and/or closed-loop control for the flow rate of the gaseous precursor and/or of the carrier gas, by keeping the partial pressure of the gaseous precursor below its saturation vapor pressure at least after it enters the pump.

  • Publication number: 20100231194
    Abstract: A method and a device (MON) for monitoring plasma-discharges during a surface treatment process are described. In this process electrodes within a gaseous medium are provided with an alternating voltage (UHV) for generating plasma. The monitoring device (MON) has a detector device (M1) for detecting a measurement signal (I) generated by the alternating voltage (UHV) within the gaseous medium, separating means (M2) for separating signal components above a preset frequency and evaluating means (M3) for evaluating the resulting separated signal components by comparing them with at least one preset reference. Preferably the generating of the plasma is achieved by dielectric barrier discharge and the electric current penetrating the medium, especially the dielectric displacement current, is measured as the measurement signal (I).
