Abstract

The effect of plasma surface treatment of polymer films on adhesion of jet printed silver nanoparticles layers was studied. The measurements were carried out by using of tensile testing machine. After plasma treatment an increase by 75% in adhesion was measured on the polyethylene terephthalate substrate, while the values on polyimide remain at the same level.
