How long does the activation effect on the surface last?
The length of time that the activation effect will last will vary depending on the material activated. The effect is strongest directly after the treatment, then fades gradually and settles at a level higher than before pre-treatment. Under ideal circumstances production steps such as coating or painting should be carried out directly after the pre-treatment. However, activation by OpenairĀ® plasma shows an extreme long-time stability in comparison to other pre-treatment methods. We would be pleased to discuss with you in detail how the activation effect will work in your particular application.
