Adhesion of copper to poly(tetrafluoroethylene) surfaces modified with vacuum UV radiation from helium arc plasma
Zheng, S.; Entenberg, Alan; Takacs, Gerald; Egitto, F.; Matienzo, L. (Springer-Verlag: Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology, 2003-12)Poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) film surfaces were exposed to vacuum UV (VUV) radiation from He dc arc plasmas that were made to rotate inside a graphite tube by the application of an auxiliary magnetic field. The films ... -
Adhesion of copper to poly(tetrafluoroethylene-co-hexafluoropropylene) (FEP) surfaces modified by vacuum UV photo-oxidation downstream from Ar microwave plasma
Dasilva, W.; Entenberg, Alan; Kahn, B.; Debies, Thomas; Takacs, Gerald (Springer-Verlag: Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology, 2004-12)Poly(tetrafluoroethylene-co-hexafluoropropylene) (FEP) surfaces were exposed to vacuum UV (VUV) photo-oxidation downstream from Ar microwave plasma. The modified surfaces showed the following: (1) an improvement in wettability ... -
Adhesion of copper to teflon surfaces modified by vacuum UV photo-oxidation downstream from Ar microwave plasma
Dasilva, W.; Entenberg, Alan; Kahn, B.; Debies, Thomas; Takacs, Gerald (The American Chemical Society: Polymeric Materials Science and Engineering, 2004)Fluoropolymers, like Teflon(r) PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) and FEP (fluorinated ethylene-propylene co-polymer), have been extensively used in space applications, protective coatings, microelectronics packaging and ... -

Use of high-temperature and high humidity to test the adhesion of sputtered copper to a polyimide surface-modified by an AC Nitrogen Glow-Discharge
JB, MA; VanDerveer, William; Entenberg, Alan; Lindberg, Vern; Anschel, M.; Shih, Dy; Lauro, P. (Brill (VSP): Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology, 1995)We have used an extreme environmental stress test to study the adhesion of a thin sputtered copper film (0.5 mu m) to flexible polyimide (PI) substrates between 25 and 125 mu m thick. The polyimide types include Kapton ...
