Plasmafrict
Plasma Technology for Friction Control
Plasma Technology for Friction Control
PlasmaFrict is a plasma surface treatment designed to accurately reduce and control the coefficient of friction of rubber, elastomers, polymers, and technical plastic components.
The treatment functionalizes the surface to reduce surface tension and tailor friction behaviour without affecting the bulk characteristics, dimensions, or mechanical tolerance of the material.
