Abstract
Changes in the surface composition of polypropylene films depending on the type of surface subjected to oxygen plasma treatment in a cylindrical reactor were studied by means of Fourier-transform attenuated total reflectance IR spectroscopy. It was found that an increase in the surface area of the film mounted as a cylinder on the reactor wall leads to a decrease in the etching rate and to an inhomogeneous concentration distribution of oxygen-containing functional groups and double bonds over the specimen length. It was shown that the concentrations of newly formed functional groups increase with an increase in the area of the treated surface.
