Abstract
The direct deposition of polymeric films with a torch-type atmospheric pressure plasma using benzene, n-hexane and cyclohexane in Ar was performed on several substrates. The surface morphologies of the films deposited with n-hexane and cyclohexane were uniformly smooth for all deposition thicknesses, and the typical water contact angle on the films indicating the degree of hydrophobicity was about 85°. However, the films deposited using benzene had a micro-coarse surface morphology and showed a superhydrophobic property with a water contact angle exceeding 150°. Some trace of oxygen incorporation was shown in all films due to the plasma deposition process in an air ambient. The small amount of oxygenated species did not lead to a decrease of hydrophobicity of the films.
