Plasma surface treated polyvinylidenefluoride - trifluoro ethylene (PVDF-TrFE) copolymer films / Muhamad Naiman Sarip
PVDF-TrFE films with thickness of 200 nm were produced by spin coating with solution concentration of 30 g/L and spinning rate of 1500 rpm. Surface of treated PVDF-TrFE film with pressure of 0.6 mbar at 9 minutes exposure time showed large elongated crystallite with increased average surface roughne...
