    Plasma activation (or plasma functionalization) is a method of surface modification employing plasma processing, which improves surface adhesion properties of many materials including metals, glass, ceramics, a broad range of polymers and textiles and even natural materials such as wood and seeds.

  5. Refining (glass) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refining_(glass)

    Refining is the removal of bubbles from the molten glass. Alternatively the term "Fining" is used, in this case, "refining" refers to the chemical processes only. Refining is supported by high temperature and stirring, as well as chemical reactions caused by refining agents. Refining agents increa

  6. Polyvinyl fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyvinyl_fluoride

    The improved process control and reaction heat removal lead to increase in molecular weight, rate of reaction and yield. Fluorinated surfactants such as perfluorinated carboxylic acids maintain a high rate of reaction even after 40% conversion , they are thermally and chemically stable and their incorporation does not impair PVF properties.

  7. Boric acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boric_acid

    [16] [17] [18] However, some of its behaviour towards some chemical reactions suggest it to be a tribasic acid in the Brønsted-Lowry sense as well. Boric acid, mixed with borax Na 2 B 4 O 7 ·10H 2 O (more properly Na 2 B 4 O 5 (OH) 4 ·8H 2 O ) in the weight ratio of 4:5, is highly soluble in water, though they are not so soluble separately.
