Rubber and plastic materials: paired with plasma cleaning machines is simply a magic? 

Rubber and plastic are two widely used and highly practical materials, which have won people's favor for their unique elasticity, durability, and diversity. Rubber is made of one or more types of polymers, which have high plasticity and elasticity, while plastic is a solid material made by mixing resin and other additives, with good wear resistance and chemical resistance. For example, rubber and plastic treated with low-temperature plasma cleaning technology can significantly improve their heat resistance and wear resistance, making them more suitable for high temperature or wear applications. At the same time, they can also improve their printing performance and adhesion, making them more widely used in the packaging and printing industries,

Although rubber and plastic may appear non-polar on the surface, they conceal the secrets of polarity in their microstructure. Plasma surface treatment technology has revealed these secrets to us, allowing us to use them to improve and expand the performance and application range of these two materials.

Before gluing rubber materials, the effect of plasma cleaning machine treatment is significant, mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1. Deep cleaning: Plasma cleaning equipment can penetrate into the tiny gaps and bumps on the surface of plastic materials, achieving comprehensive and thorough cleaning. This deep cleaning ability ensures the purity of the plastic surface, providing a good foundation for subsequent processes such as coating, bonding, printing, etc.

2. Enhanced adhesion: After plasma cleaning treatment, the molecular structure of the plastic material surface may change, increasing surface energy and significantly enhancing its adhesion. This is very advantageous for subsequent coating, spraying, bonding and other processes, as it can improve the adhesion of the coating or bonding layer, ensuring the quality and stability of the process effect. For example, in the automotive industry, linear plasma cleaning machines are used to treat the surfaces of plastic parts such as bumpers, instrument panels, and center control panels to enhance their adhesion during painting, flocking, and other processes.

3. Improving glossiness: Wide plasma cleaning can also create micro concave convex structures on the surface of plastic materials, which can scatter light and increase the surface glossiness of the product.

4. Enhanced heat resistance: In some cases, plasma cleaning treatment may alter the molecular structure of the plastic material surface, thereby enhancing its heat resistance. This is particularly important for plastic products that need to be used in high-temperature environments, as it helps to improve the product's lifespan and stability.

5. Improving surface performance: Plasma cleaning can remove small burrs and pollutants on the surface of plastics, making their surface smoother and increasing surface area, thereby enhancing surface activity. This can make the plastic surface more prone to react with other materials, thereby enhancing its practicality. Guangdong Zhenyi Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. has a series of plasma cleaning equipment, including atmospheric pressure equipment, wide width plasma cleaning equipment, plasma cleaning stripping machine, etc. It can not only clean surface residues, but also improve surface adhesion.

6. Improving durability and corrosion resistance: Plasma treatment can enhance the durability and corrosion resistance of plastics. The molecular structure of the processed plastic undergoes changes, making it more durable and corrosion-resistant.

7. Environmentally friendly and efficient: No chemicals are required during the plasma cleaning process, avoiding environmental pollution. At the same time, the processing time is short, the efficiency is high, and it is more economical and practical than other surface treatment methods.

In summary, plasma cleaning machines have significant advantages and broad application prospects in the field of rubber and plastic. The plasma cleaning machine can not only achieve deep cleaning and modification of plastic surfaces, but also improve the glossiness, heat resistance, adhesion, durability, and corrosion resistance of products, while also possessing the characteristics of environmental protection and high efficiency.
