CAP Vacuum

Cold atmospheric vacuum plasma (CAP) is a type of plasma generated at atmospheric pressure and low temperature. Unlike low-pressure plasma, which requires putting the parts in a vacuum chamber of partially ionized gas to get the surface to be treated in contact with the plasma, CAP can be generated in open air. CAP is a powerful tool used in various fields, including material science, medicine, agriculture, and food industry. In material science, CAP treatment is routinely used to modify the surface properties of a wide range of materials, such as wettability, chemical composition, and adhesion. CAP is ideal for in-line processing and very effective at activating and cleaning the surface of a material, increasing the adhesion characteristics and making it easier to bond, paint, and glue. In medicine, CAP has been shown to reduce microbial load without any known significant negative effects on healthy tissues, making it a promising tool for treating chronic wounds and other microbial infections

​

  • There are several advantages of cold atmospheric vacuum plasma (CAP), including: Rapid processes: CAP treatment is very fast and can be completed in a matter of seconds or minutes.

  • Enhanced process efficiency: CAP is very effective at modifying the surface properties of materials, such as wettability, chemical composition, and adhesion.

  • Ability to treat thermally labile samples: CAP can be used to treat soft and organic materials, polymers, and other thermally labile samples without any surface damage because the substrate temperature remains close to room temperature.

  • Low running cost: CAP is generated from compressed air and does not require expensive gases for operation.

  • Environmental friendliness: CAP is a green technology that does not produce any harmful byproducts or waste.

  • These advantages make CAP an ideal tool for various applications, including material science, medicine, agriculture, and food industry.

Pacem Vacuum Product Specification

The properties of a cold atmospheric vacuum plasma (CAP) device include:

  1. Atmospheric pressure: CAP is generated at atmospheric pressure, which means that the plasma can be generated in open air without the need for a vacuum chamber.

  2. Low gas temperature: CAP is generated at low gas temperature, which means that the substrate temperature remains close to room temperature, making it ideal for treating soft and organic materials, polymers, and other thermally labile samples.

  3. Enhanced gas phase chemistry: CAP devices produce enhanced gas phase chemistry, which can be used to modify the surface properties of a wide range of materials, such as wettability, chemical composition, and adhesion.

  4. Fast processing: CAP treatment is very fast and can be completed in a matter of seconds or minutes.

  5. Green technology: CAP is a green technology that does not produce any harmful byproducts or waste.

  6. Safety: CAP devices are safe to use and do not pose any significant risk to human health or the environment.

We are working with universities and private labs.
