Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the formation of a reject by stopping the application of a voltage and the conveyance of a resin molding when the ratio of the time necessary for passing the molding between both electrodes to the humidity between them becomes smaller than the predetermined value. CONSTITUTION:After the switch of a treatment apparatus is thrown, switches 5 and 10 are shut to operate a belt conveyor 3, and a high voltage is applied between electrodes 7 and 8 to generate a corona discharge. An intermediate resin molding 1 on the belt conveyor is passed between the electrodes 7 and 8, and during the pass its surface is activated with ozone generated by corona discharge. When the ratio of the time necessary for passing the molding 1 between the electrodes 7 and 8 to the humidity between the electrodes 7 and 8 becomes smaller than the predetermined value at which the surface activation of the molding 1 is insufficient, the application of a voltage between the electrodes 7 and 8 and the conveyance of the molding 1 are stopped.

[Effects of the Invention] As detailed above, the corona discharge treatment method of the present invention can prevent the occurrence of defective products due to insufficient activation of the surface of resin molded products. This eliminates the need to confirm the degree of activation by measuring the contact angle after corona discharge treatment or observing the dripping state of the standard wetting index solution.

[Claims] 1. A high voltage is applied between a pair of electrodes (7, 8) arranged opposite to each other to generate a corona discharge, and a conveying means (
3), transport the resin molded product (1) and attach it to both electrodes (7, 8).
In the corona discharge treatment method, the surface of the resin molded product (1) is activated with ozone generated by the corona discharge by passing the resin molded product (1) between the electrodes (7, 8). When the ratio of the time required to pass through the electrodes and the humidity between the electrodes (7, 8) becomes smaller than a preset value, the surface activation of the resin molded product (1) is deemed insufficient. Both electrodes (7, 8
) and stopping the conveyance of the resin molded product (1).
