Editor’s choice article on Mechanisms involved in the modification of textiles by non-equilibrium plasma treatment
The authors published a paper entitled “Mechanisms involved in the modification of textiles by non-equilibrium plasma treatment” that has been chosen as an Editor’s choice article in the journal Molecules. The publication presents the fundamentals of plasma penetration into textiles and illustrates mechanisms that lead to the appropriate surface finish of fibers inside the textile. The crucial relations are provided, and the different concepts of low-pressure and atmospheric-pressure discharges useful for the modification of textile’s properties are explained.
