Plasma for Textile Manufacturing

Openair-Plasma® pretreatment significantly improves the wettability of fibers and yarns, allowing even solvent-free dyes to bond well and durably. Surfaces can be provided with hydrophobic and dirt-repellent finishes. Openair-Plasma® jets can keep pace with the tough demands of new high-performance spinning equipment. Aurora Plasma pre-treatment significantly improves the wettability and thus the bonding of reinforcing fabrics.

Yarn finishing

Durable, stable colorfastness thanks to physical surface modification: In fiber and yarn technology, the focus is on the first step of the textile production chain. Modern textiles demand durable, stable colorfastness while simultaneously reducing the use of solvents.

Fabrics/technical nonwovens

Material activation and functionalization with plasma treatment: Plasma treatment hydrophilizes fabrics and technical nonwovens and facilitates wettability with water-based processing materials in subsequent steps, such as dyeing, printing, or textile finishing.

Functionalized fabrics

Added value with plasma coating: Fabric can acquire entirely new material qualities by creating new functionalities, like self-cleaning finishes, bioactive surfaces, and flame-retardant properties, for example.

Reinforcing fabrics

Plasma pre-treatment of reinforcing fabrics, aramid fabrics: Aramid webs are technical fabrics which are used amongst other areas in the provision of high-performance tires, shot-blasting, heat-resistant textiles or for reinforcing components.
