Plasma Surface Treatments for Plastics and Rubber

Plasmapps develops advanced plasma surface treatments for the rubber and plastics industry, enhancing material performance without altering flexibility, appearance, or mechanical properties. Through innovative plasma and nanotechnology processes, conventional polymer and elastomer components are transformed into high-performance surfaces designed for demanding industrial applications.

The company’s technologies improve durability, cleanliness, friction control, adhesion, and surface protection for products such as gaskets, O-rings, valves, technical plastic parts, medical devices, and automotive components.

Its plasma treatments create ultra-thin protective barriers resistant to abrasion, moisture, chemicals, and corrosion, extending product lifespan while preserving original material characteristics. Additional solutions reduce friction and wear on moving components, improving efficiency, reliability, and reducing maintenance costs.

For applications requiring superior cleanliness and contamination resistance, specialized plasma processes generate hydrophobic and oleophobic surfaces capable of repelling water, oils, and dirt, while anti-fouling treatments help prevent deposits and contamination in industrial systems. Surface activation and molecular cleaning technologies also improve adhesion for bonding, coating, printing, and sealing processes without the use of aggressive chemicals or solvents.

All treatments are solvent-free, environmentally friendly, and compatible with complex geometries and sensitive materials. At PLAST 2026, Plasmapps presents the future of plasma surface engineering: smarter, cleaner, and more durable solutions for the rubber and plastics industry.
