Abstract

A glow discharge treatment of Polytetrafluoroethylene avoids charging effects and permits observation of the sample in Scanning Electron Spectroscopy; x-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy has been used to study changes in the surface chemical composition and electronic structure of the polymer produced by this treatment.
