Preface
This book documents the proceedings of the Fourth International Symposium on
Polymer Surface Modification: Relevance to Adhesion held under the aegis of
MST Conferences, LLC in Orlando, FL, June 9-11, 2003. The premier sympo
sium on this topic was held in Las Vegas, Nevada, November 3-5, 1993, the pro
ceedings of which were properly chronicled [1]. The second symposium in this
series was held under the auspices of MST Conferences, LLC in Newark, NJ,
May 24-26, 1999, which was also documented in a proceedings book [2]. Apro
pos, it should be recorded that the third symposium in this vein was organized
also by MST Conferences, LLC in Newark, NJ, May 21-23, 2001 but, for a vari
ety of reasons, the proceedings of this event were not documented in the form of a
hard-bound book.
Polymers are used for a variety of purposes in a host of technological applica
tions and even a cursory look at the literature will evince that currently there is
tremendous interest and R&D activity in the area of polymer surface modification
to attain their desired surface characteristics, particularly to enhance their adhe
sion. This arises from the fact that polymers are innately not very adhesionable
and this necessitates their surface treatment to enhance their adhesion to other ma
terials. It should be underscored here that there exists a legion of polymer surface
treatment methods which can be broadly classified into wet and dry processes.
The technical program for this symposium was comprised of 28 papers reflect
ing both overviews and original research contributions. These presentations dis
cussed many different surface treatment methods, polymer surface analysis, and
the life and durability of treatment methods.
Now turning to this volume, it contains a total of 25 papers which were prop
erly peer reviewed, revised and edited. So this book is not a mere collection of
papers, rather represents the highest standard of publication. The book is divided
into three parts: Part 1. Plasma Surface Modification Techniques; Part 2.
Other/Miscellaneous Surface Modification Techniques; and Part 3. General Pa
pers. The topics covered include: low pressure plasma surface modification of a
variety of polymers using various gases; atmospheric pressure plasma treatment;
improvement of stain release properties of fabrics; modification of electrostatic
properties of polymers; photon-based processes for surface modification of fibers;
excimer UV light treatment; excimer laser surface treatment; low-energy ion
treatment; photo-grafting and photo-curing; metallization of treated polymers;
chemical (wet) functionalization of polymers; adhesion of paints to thermoplastic
substrates; polymer release surfaces; nanolithography in polymer films; gas bar-
