Abstract

Calculations of the apparent activation energy for the growth of macromolecular entities in the form of cones on the surface of a growing film, as well as the apparent activation energy for the interaction of free radicals of the film with air oxygen after exposure of the film to the atmosphere, confirmed the existence of three steps of the formation of polymer films from heptane in a low-temperature, low-pressure plasma. It was found that the cones have a structure other than that of the film on which they are formed.
