The polylactic acid (PLA) resin Ingeo 4032D was selected as the research object, with a focus on PLA modification by using polymers such as linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and ethylene–propylene-diene monomer grafted with glycidyl methacrylate (EPDM-g-GMA), by using fillers such as nano calcium carbonate and zeolite. In order to characterize the deposition effect of Al2O3 on the film surface by plasma-assisted atomic layer deposition, Bio-oriented PLA (BOPLA) with more uniform thickness than blown film was purchased for study. The mechanical properties, friction coefficient, surface contact angle and water vapour transmission rate of the modified PLA film were compared and discussed. The aim was to find out the most influencing factors of film’s water vapour resistance.

Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is a thin film growth technique that uses self-limiting, sequential reactions localized at the growing film surface. It guarantees exceptional conformality on high-aspect-ratio structures and controllability...

AbstractThe compatibility of ALD and CVD metal deposition with mesoporous and microporous carbon-doped organosilicate glass (OSG) films was examined. Blanket film studies using TEM, TOF-SIMS, and positron lifetime spectroscopy demonstrate that ALD Wand TaN penetrate deep into the mesoporous film via the film's connected pore structure. In contrast, metal penetration into microporous OSG films was not observed. He and NH3 plasma pretreatments to the mesoporous OSG film surface did not seal the mesopores to ALD metal penetration, but the plasmas did damage the bulk of the mesoporous OSG film with varying severity. The results indicate that porosity, pore size, and/or pore structure regulate ALD/CVD precursor diffusion and that ALD metal deposition is a good probe of pore sealing strategies.

Atomic layer deposition has become an important thin-film growth technique for producing gas diffusion barriers because of its low process temperature and its ability to produce uniform films. In this work, atomic layer deposition was used to deposit various Al2O3 and ZnO thin films on polyethylene terephthalate substrates; subsequently, the physical properties and water vapor transmission rates of the films were characterized. Single and hybrid films (Al2O3, ZnO, Al2O3/ZnO, and ZnO/Al2O3) with thicknesses of 25, 50, and 100 nm at a deposition temperature of 60°C were investigated. The deposited films were characterized for surface roughness, optical transmittance, adhesion, water vapor transmission rate, and contact angle. The results showed that the double-layer structure provided a higher water vapor transmission rate and higher adhesion strength than those of the single-layer structure although both the surface roughness and optical transmittance of the single-layer structure were slightly better than those of the double-layer structure. The results revealed that the atomic layer deposition-grown hybrids could act as water vapor barriers.
