What is it about?

The electron temperature and electron density lead to control the external parameters in the plasma resulted in the change of the hydrophobicity of the polystyrene's surfaces

Why is it important?

Our findings show the Temperature electron and density controlled the change in the hydrophobicity of the polystyrene's surfaces by bombardment processes caused by the reactive process by the excited atomic oxygen. Further, the reactive process producing the hydrophilic surface by the existence of the polar functional group after the plasma treatment.

Perspectives

I hope this article can help to develop knowledge about the relationship between temperature electron and density with the external parameter in the Oxygen plasma treatment process. This article also explain about the effect of the temperature and density to the wetting behavior in the polystyrene surfaces
