Welcome to the Surface Treatment / Modification Blog.
This Blog will attempt to discuss and inform about anything and everything related to…drum roll please…surface treatment and separate fact from fantasy.
The subject of surface treatment can be difficult to explore. Some techniques are closely held secrets while other procedures are spelled out on the page of a magazine. So, it can be difficult to know what cleaning or surface treatment technique is appropriate for a specific application. In many cases, a perfectly good surface treatment technique is applied to the wrong application, and then the technique is given a “bum rap”; There are many times I have heard…”plasma doesn’t work!” or ” nothing beats my sandpaper and acetone trick.” Well, plasma can work and there is something better and simpler than acetone and sandpaper.
If you have already heard enough and would like help increasing yield, adding value, or developing new products, please go to the TriStar Plastics Corp. web site to initiate your project. Or simply Ask The Experts your questions right away!
So, without further delay…lets blog about Surface treatment.
