Modification of stearic acid in Ar and Ar-O2 pulsed DC discharge
Stearic acid (CH3(CH2)16COOH) was treated with Ar and Ar-O2 (10%) pulsed DC discharges created by a cathode-anode confined system to elucidate the role of oxygen in plasma cleaning. The treatment time (5 to 120 minutes) and plasma gas mixture (Ar and Ar-O2) were varied, and the results showed that t...
