Abstract

Abstract A process for the pretreatment of a polyolefin product before coating consisting essentially of the steps of treating the surface of the polyolefin product before coating using an organic solvent having a solubility parameter (SP value) equal or similar to that of the polyolefin and subsequently applying a plasma treating thereto in the presence of an active gas by microwave treating the active gas under vacuum. As a result of the process, the surface of the polyolefin product is activated and the adhesion of the coating film is improved.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 74 words
A process for the pretreatment of a polyolefin product before coating, said process consisting essentially of steps of treating the surface of the polyolefin product before coating using an organic solvent having a solubility parameter (SP value) equal or similar to that of the polyolefin and subsequently applying a plasma treating thereto in the presence of an active gas, wherein said plasma treating is conducted by microwave treating an active gas under a vacuum.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 74 words
A process for the pretreatment of a polyolefin product before coating, said process consisting essentially of steps of treating the surface of the polyolefin product before coating using an organic solvent having a solubility parameter (SP value) equal or similar to that of the polyolefin and subsequently applying a plasma treating thereto in the presence of an active gas, wherein said plasma treating is conducted by microwave treating an active gas under a vacuum.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 40 words
A process for the pretreatment of a polyolefin product before coating according to claim 1, wherein said polyolefin product is selected from the group consisting of polyethylene homopolymer, ethylene vinylacetate copolymer, ethylene acrylate copolymer, polypropylene homopolymer and ethylene propylene copolymer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 53 words
A process for the pretreatment of a polyolefin product before coating according to claim 2, wherein said treating using an organic solvent is vapor treating using an organic solvent of a chlorine compound selected from the group consisting of trichloroethylene, trichloroethane, dichloroethane, ethyl chloride, pentachloroethylene, tetrachloroethylene, methylene chloride, ethylene dichloride and acetyl chloride.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 45 words
A process for the pretreatment of a polyolefin product before coating according to claim 2, wherein said treating using an organic solvent is vapor treating using an organic solvent of an aromatic compound selected from the group consisting of benzene, toluene, xylene, chlorotoluene and chlorobenzene.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 43 words
A process for the pretreatment of a polyolefin product before coating according to claim 3 or 4, wherein said active gas is selected from the group consisting of O 2 , Br 2 , NH 3 , O 3 and Cl 2 .
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 60 words
A process for the pretreating of a polyolefin product before coating according to claim 5, wherein said plasma treating is conducted in an apparatus wherein the active gas is microwave treated at a microwave output of 0.2˜3.0 Kw and an oscillation frequency of 2,450±50 MHz under a degree of vacuum of 0.1˜1.0 Torr, for a treating time of 10˜30 seconds.
