Durable colours, functional surfaces, high-speed treatment: plasma in textile manufacturing
Openair® Plasma pretreatment significantly improves the wettability of fibres and yarns, allowing even solvent-free dyes to bond well and durably. Surfaces can be provided with hydrophobic and dirt-repellent finishes. Openair® Plasma jets can keep pace with the tough demands of new high-performance spinning equipment.
