Conventional pretreatment by wet chemistry and/or low-pressure plasma have several drawbacks [1]. Atmospheric plasma is an alternative and cost-competitive method to low-pressure plasma and wet chemical pretreatments, allowing continuous and uniform processing of fibers, substrates and films surfaces, improving its functionalization performance [2]. This technology has been studied in the field of the R&D proje...
