47th ak-adp workshop - Sustainable bonding technology using atmospheric pressure plasma - potentials - practical tips - experiences

The event will take place from November 13 to 14, 2024 in Jena / Thuringia. Adhesion optimization is a constantly recurring topic and quality criterion in many branches of industry. This is where plasmas - energetically excited gases - can help quickly, cost-effectively and in an environmentally friendly way. Surface functionalization with atmospheric pressure plasma through ultra-fine cleaning, activation or even nanocoating can replace chemical and vacuum processes or enable completely new functionalities and material combinations. Atmospheric plasmas are therefore an innovative way of achieving greater ecological sustainability, quality assurance and increasing the economic efficiency of production processes. The presentations will focus on topics such as efficient component cleaning, adhesion mechanisms, specific surface pre-treatments for various materials and applications, including composite materials and recyclates, as well as new methods for measuring adhesion. The open panel discussion will deal with the REACh problem regarding primers and adhesives and impulses for the sustainability and economic efficiency of plasma processes. An evening event and the established regulars' table will be offered in the tried and tested form. On 13.11. there will be the opportunity to visit the laboratory of Innovent e.V. Technologieentwicklung.
