Arbeitsgruppe Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Viöl:

The plasma treatment of wood and wooden materials affects plenty of surface changes. The surface energy can be increased, the uptake of modifiers and the chemical properties of the surface (pH-value etc.) can be changed. All these effects depend on the used plasma discharge. Therefore, concerning this subject, the properties of different discharges shall be investigated: The influencing factors, as for example the electron temperature, the concentration of radicals or the electrical parameters, ought to be measured. As well, the effect on the surfaces should be evaluated.
