The Impact

Mechanical, chemical and plasma treatment are the main kind of treatment of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) films. Each method is different from each other by the adhesive force: the value of the wetting angle. Mechanical treatment allows different particles to permeate into the structure of the polymer. Chemical treatment creates new functional groups on the polymer surface, but this method is toxic and dangerous. Plasma treatment, in a glow discharge non-thermal plasma, is a more ecological and practical method. The experiment showed that the plasma treatment successfully increases the adhesion, this has been proven by infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. According to the obtained data of the wetting angle, the regression equation was derived. A graphical model is constructed by regression equations allows you to determine the main processing factor and choose the optimal values of treatment.

The aim of this study was to use diffuse coplanar surface barrier discharge (DCSBD) non-thermal plasma for the disinfection of pine seed surfaces infected with Fusarium oxysporum spores. Artificially infected seeds of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) were treated with plasma for the following exposure times: 1 s, 3 s, 5 s, 10 s, 15 s, 20 s, 30 s, and 60 s, and subsequently germinated on agar medium in Petri dishes at room temperature for the estimation of seed germination and disinfection effect of plasma treatment. Results of the treated samples were compared to the control samples, which were prepared as follows: seeds uninfected and non-treated with plasma (first control); seeds infected with F. oxysporum and non-treated with plasma (second control); and seeds infected with F. oxysporum, non-treated with plasma, but sterilized with 30% perhydrol (third control). Obtained results indicate that 3 s plasma treatment was an optimal time to inhibit F. oxysporum growth, and at the same time, increase the seed germination. In addition, our results are the first to show the practical application of non-thermal plasma in disinfecting infected Scots pine seeds and improving their germination. According to the results of this study, non-thermal plasma can serve as a seed surface disinfectant in the regeneration of different pine species.
