Plasma polymerization of allylamine subsequently after plasma pre-treatment was conducted on the activated carbon fibers (ACFs) for the immobilization of amine groups in the surface of ACFs. The change of structural properties of ACFs with respect to different polymerization conditions was investigated through BET method. The change of surface morphologies of ACFs with respect to different plasma polymerization power was also studied through AFM. It was found that the structural properties such as specific surface area and micropore volume could be optimized under certain plasma deposition conditions. It was reckoned that treatment and deposition showed adverse effect on plasma polymerization, in which the former developed the micro-structures of the ACFs and the latter tended to block the micro pores. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) revealed that the poly(allylamine) was successfully immobilized on the surface of ACFs and the amount of the deposited polymer layer was related to the plasma polymerization power. SEM results showed that the plasma deposited polymer layer were small and homogenously distributed. The size and the distribution of particles deposited were closely related to the plasma polymerization power, too.

유용하고 중요한 의료기기인 폐 보조 장치(LAD)의 혈액 접촉 표면과 인공 폐 막에 사용하기 위한 혈액 적합성 생체 재료를 개발하기 위해 폴리프로필렌 중공사 막의 표면 개질을 수행하였다. 재료의 혈액적합성은 항응고 처리된 혈액을 사용하였고 플라스마 응고 형성, 혈소판 접착 및 플라스마 응고 활성화, 그들의 표면 혈전 형성을 평가하여 결정하였다. 실험 결과는 실리콘 코팅 중공사들에 부착한 혈소판 수가 우수한 혈액 적합성을 나타내는 폴리프로필렌에 부착한 혈소판 수보다도 상당히 더 낮았음이 확인되었다. 또한, 상대적으로 플라스마 표면 처리한 폴리프로필렌 중공사 막이 혈액 적합성 평가에서 보체 활성화 억제를 보였음이 확인되었다.

Plasma polymerization of Perfluoropropene(PFP) was carried out in a tubular type reactor. The Plasma was generated by coupling inductively under the fixed discharge power of 25W and the pressure of 100, 140, and 200 mTorr of radio frequency generator. PFP plasma polymerization thin films were deposited in acrylic yams. For 1 hours, the acrylic yams treated and untreated by PFP plasma were immersed in boiling water. Then the reduction of contraction coefficient of acrylic yams were measured respectively. As a result of this experiment, untreated acrylic yams were reduced around 23%, while treated yams were contracted about 18-2%.
