  • Patent number: 9259905
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for connecting substrates including depositing a plasma polymer layer on each of a first and a second substrate by means of atmospheric pressure plasma and bringing the plasma polymer layers in contact with each other. In a variant of the method, only the first substrate is provided with a plasma polymer layer and connected to a second substrate, the surface of which can react with the plasma polymer layer. The invention further relates to composite structures which can be obtained with such methods.

  • Publication number: 20120261391
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for producing surface-modified particles in atmospheric pressure plasma, and a method for producing a coating with particles dispersed therein using an atmospheric pressure plasma. The plasma is produced by a discharge between electrodes in a process gas. In both methods one of the electrodes is a sputter electrode, which sputters the particles due to the discharge. Also disclosed are methods for producing composite material, with which surface-modified particles are built in a matrix, and to said composite materials. Also disclosed are plasma nozzles and devices containing said nozzles for producing surface-modified particles and coatings with the particles dispersed therein.
