Description
Technical field
The method that the present invention relates to atmospheric pressure plasma assembly and handle a substrate with described assembly.
Background technology
When material was continued to energize, its temperature raise and typically is transformed into liquid from solid, becomes gas then.Be continuously applied energy and cause system to experience further state variation, wherein the neutral atom of gas or molecule are smashed by energetic encounter, generate electronegative electronics, plus or minus ion and other material.The collective behavior that the mixture of this charge species demonstrates is called " plasma ", i.e. the 4th attitude of material.Because their electric charge, plasma can be subjected to the very big influence of external electromagnetic field, makes their easy control.In addition, can allow other state that they can treated substance in they high, this to use liquid or gas treatment be impossible or very difficult.
Term " plasma " comprises the system of huge range, and its density and temperature have the variation of many orders of magnitude.Some plasmas are very warm, their all microscopic species (ion, electronics, etc.) approximate thermal equilibrium, the energy that is input in the system distributes widely by the collision of atom/molecule level.Yet, other plasma, the less relatively generation of (for example 100Pa) collision especially under low pressure has component under very wide different temperatures, be called " thermal nonequilibrium " plasma.In these non-thermal plasmas, free electron heat very, temperature are several thousand thermodynamic temperatures (K) and neutral and ionic species remains cold.Because free electron almost has negative mass, the enthalpy of whole system is lower, and plasma is operated in and approaches room temperature, allow like this to handle to temperature-sensitive material, and for example plastics or polymer, and it is not added that damaging heat loads.By energetic encounter, hot electron causes abundant free radical and excites substance source that they have the high chemical potential energy that is suitable for deep chemistry and physical activity.This just low-temperature working adds that highly active combination makes non-thermal plasmas extremely important technically, and be a strong instrument that is used to make with material processed, be suitable for handling needs are very high when not having plasma the temperature or the occasion of harmful and aggressive chemicals.
For the commercial Application of plasma technique, one easily method be electromagnetic power to be coupled into handle in the gas, it can be gas and steam mixture, pending workpieces/samples immerses therein or passes through.Gas is ionized and becomes plasma, generates chemical free radical, ultraviolet ray and ion with the sample surfaces reaction.Handle gas component by selection correctly, the driving power frequency, power coupled mode pressure and other Control Parameter, plasma treatment can be designed to satisfy the required concrete application of producer.
Because huge chemistry and the heat rating of plasma, they are suitable for many technology and use.Nonthermal plasma is especially effective to surface activation, surface clean, material etching and overlay coating.
The surface activation of polymeric material is a kind of industrial plasma technology of the extensive use of at first being used by auto industry.Like this, for example the polyolefin that receives an acclaim owing to the recirculation purposes as polyethylene and polypropylene, is difficult to coating or bonding thereby have nonpolar surface.Yet, cause forming the surface polarity base with oxygen plasma treatment, cause high wettability, thereby have metallic paint., adhesive or other coating has excellent covering and adherence.Therefore, in the manufacturing of Vehicular instrument panel, instrument board, bumper bar etc., and in the assembling of the assembly in toy and similar industrial, it is more and more important that the plasma surface engineering is just becoming.In to the printing of the assembly of all geometries of polymer, plastics, pottery/inorganic, metal and other material, japanning, bonding, lamination and conventional coating, can obtain many other application.
The infiltration of environmental legislation and the increase of intensity in the world wide are used solvent and other wet chemistry goods to industrial reducing or eliminating in manufacture process, especially concerning assembly/surface clean, just producing immense pressure.Especially, based on the degreasing operation of CFC in large quantities by etc. the gas ions cleaning technique of use oxygen, air and other non-toxic gas work replace.In conjunction with pre-cleaning operation and plasma application based on water, allow to clean even the unusual assembly of severe contamination, the surface that obtains is better than the surface that conventional method obtains.Any organic surface contamination is removed rapidly by room-temperature plasma, change into can safety dumping gas CO
2And water.
Plasma can also be realized etching body material, for example is used for removing therefrom undesired material.Like this, for example a kind of plasma based on oxygen is with etch polymers, and this is a kind of processing that is applied to make wiring board etc.Different materials, for example metal, pottery and inorganic matter come etching by careful selection initial gas and attention plasma chemistry.Little structure to nanometer critical dimension is now by plasma etching technology and made.
The plasma technique that occurs rapidly and become main flow industry is plasma coating/thin film deposition.Typically, realize that the high energy polymerization is by plasma application is arrived monomer gas and steam.Like this, can form the film of densification, firm joint and three-dimensional combination, it has thermally-stabilised, chemical anticorrosive, mechanical firm.Such film can be deposited on guarantor's type in addition complex surface on, and be in and can guarantee under the heat load temperature low on the substrate.So plasma is used to apply accurate and thermo-responsive and robust metallic is very desirable.Plasma coating even in thin layer, also do not have micropore.The optical characteristics that usually can customize coating is color for example, and plasma coating even very good with the non-polar material adhesion, for example polyethylene, and steel (for example anticorrosive film on the solid metal reflector), pottery, semiconductor, textile etc.
In these all processing, Plasma Engineering has been made the surface effect of the hope application of customization, has perhaps made the product that influences material monolithic in no instance.Plasma treatment provides general and a powerful instrument for the producer like this, permission is for overall technology and nature of business and select material, freedom is provided simultaneously, make it possible to the independent design surface to satisfy diverse needs, and functional, the performance that has given greatly that product strengthens, life-span and quality, offering the important added value of user to properties of product.
These character have promoted the processing of industrial employing based on plasma consumingly, guided this promotion from nineteen sixty generation, by microelectronics group the low pressure glow discharge plasma has been developed into and be used for supertech and the high capital cost engineering tools that semiconductor, metal and dielectric are handled.The low pressure glow discharge type plasma same since the 1980's has been penetrated into other industrial department day by day, provide processing with appropriate more cost, for example be used to increase the polymer surfaces activation of adhesion/bond strength, high-quality degreasing/cleaning and depositing high-quality coating.Like this, accepted plasma technique basically.Glow discharge can obtain under vacuum and atmospheric pressure.Under the Atomospheric pressure glow discharge situation, for example helium and argon gas are as diluent for gas, and a high frequency (for example greater than 1kHz) power source is used under atmospheric pressure producing uniform glow discharge, according to Penning ionization mechanism, (for example see Kanazawa etc., J.Phys.D:Appl.Phys.1988
21, 838, Okazaki etc., Proc.Jpn.Symp.PlasmaChem.1989,
2, 95, Kanazawa etc., Nuclear Instr μ ments and Methods inPhysical Research 1989, B37/38,842, and Yokoyama etc., J.Phys.D:Appl.Phys.1990,
23, 374).
Yet the using plasma technology has been confined to the main constraint of most of industrial plasma systems, that is, they need under low pressure be worked.Partial vacuum work means closed perimeter, and sealed reaction system only provides off-line, the discrete work package of batch processing.Output is lower or medium and need vacuum to increase capital and operating cost.
Yet atmospheric pressure plasma provides opening port or perimeter systems for industry, provides by work package/nethike embrane to enter and withdraw from ion plasma freely, therefore can the big small size nethike embrane of online, continuous processing or transmission carry discrete nethike embrane.The reinforcement of the high flow of material that is obtained by high-pressure work, output is very high.Many industrial departments, for example textile, packing, paper, medicine, automobile, aviation etc. almost completely depend on continuous on-line and handle, and make that opening port/circumferential arrangement plasma provides new industrial treatment ability under the atmospheric pressure.
Corona discharge and flame (also being a kind of plasma) treatment system provides the atmospheric plasma treatment performance of limited form about 30 years for industry.Yet although they have high manufacturability, these systems fail to penetrate into market, perhaps fail to reach picture low pressure, electrolytic treatments plasma type in industrial occupied degree.Reason is that corona discharge/flame system has significant limitations.They are operated in the surrounding air, provide single surface activation to handle, and many materials are not almost had effect and most of materials are only had faint effect.It usually is uneven handling, and Corona discharge Treatment and thick nethike embrane or 3D nethike embrane are incompatible, and flame treatment and thermo-responsive substrate are incompatible.Be perfectly clear, atmospheric pressure plasma techniques must enter in the darker atmospheric pressure plasma field, to develop the AS that satisfies industrial needs.
The atmospheric pressure plasma deposit has obtained major progress.On stabilisation of atmospheric pressure glow discharges, carried out suitable work, for example the description among J.Phys.D:Appl.Phys.26 (1993) 889-892 such as Okazaki.More, US Patent specification No.5414324 has described under atmospheric pressure, at a pair of interval 5cm, between the metallic plate electrode that insulate on the electricity, and the excitation of the 1-100kHz radio frequency (RF) of 1-5kV root mean square (rms) current potential generates the stable state glow discharge plasma down.The U.S. 5414324 has also discussed the problem of battery lead plate and has stoped the needs of electrical breakdown at the electrode tips place, and has described a water-cooling system of implementing by the fluid flow conduit that is bonded on the electrode, and water does not wherein directly contact with any electrode surface.
In US Patent specification No.5185132, an atmospheric pressure plasma reaction method has been described, wherein plate electrode is used for arranged perpendicular.Yet they only are used in the arranged perpendicular with the preparation plasma, and plasma is directly on the horizontal plane under the electrode that injects to vertical arrangement between two pole plates then.
Among the common pending application WO02/28548 of applicant that after the application's priority date, announces, an atmospheric pressure plasma glow discharge device is provided, has been designed to liquid or solid by the plasma treatment substrate in the introducing plasma flows such as atomizer.
In JP 07-0062546 and US 6086710, plasma processing apparatus is provided, the method for several alternative removal plasmas through processing gas, gaseous reactant and accessory substance etc. later described.
In EP 0431951, provide an atmospheric pressure plasma device, the mass treatment substrate that uses a kind of rare gas of plasma treatment/reaction gas mixtures to generate.Plate dielectric electrode to small part and place side by side mutually, their perpendicular alignmnets make that substrate passes through perpendicular to substrate under interelectrode slit.This device needs a complete surface treatment unit, and the width by this surface treatment unit can limit the width of any pending substrate effectively, and this makes system very heavy.
In the WO02/40742 that the application's priority was announced after the date, a method and apparatus of atmospheric pressure plasma using gases processing substrate has been discussed.JP 2002-57440 has described an atmospheric plasma treatment method of using gases treatment circuit plate, the surface treatment of using pulse voltage to come the intensifier circuit plate.Do not discuss in these documents and as disclosed among the present invention, introduce in a kind of liquid or solid coating to one equipment.
