Plasma Technology for Hyperfunctional Surfaces

Based on a project backed by the European Union, this is a must-have resource for researchers in industry and academia concerned with application-oriented plasma technology research. Clearly divided in three sections, the first part is dedicated to the fundamentals of plasma and offers information about scientific and theoretical plasma topics, plasma production, surface treatment process and characterization. The second section focuses on technological aspects and plasma process applications in textile, food packaging and biomedical sectors, while the final part is devoted to concerns about the environmental sustainability of plasma processes.

Hubert Rauscher was born 1962 in Ingostadt, Germany. After his time at the University of Ulm he works now for the European Commission at the Institute for Health and Consumer Protection in Ispra, Italy.
Massimo Perucca was studying at the Univerity of Torino and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. he got his Ph.D. in fluid dynamics and plasma physics and is now working as an independet research professional.
