- Abstract
- The surface of paper was treated to control wettability using argon-carbon plasma generated by a direct current -pulsed (frequency: 60 kHz) sputtering device with parallel-arrangement magnets. After plasma treatment, the C-C bond percentage in the C 1s region was inversely proportional to the C-OH bond percentage, while the ratio of C=O and O-C=O bonds only changed slightly. The change ratios for the increase in C-C and the decrease in the C-OH bonds were approximately the same, and the change ratio increased from approximately 5%-11% with an increase in the plasma current. The reduction ratio of the contact angle decreased from 0.945 to 0.182 (/s) with increasing plasma current. These results indicate that the water resistance of the paper surface was enhanced after the simple plasma treatment, and wettability could be easily controlled by changing the sub-stitution ratio between C-OH and C-C elements, achieved by altering the plasma current.
