Because of their exceptional reactivity, fluorine and fluorinated gases are of primary importance for the modification of the surface properties of materials. This study is devoted to surface treatment of thin nitrile gloves, made of carboxylated nitrile butadiene rubber latex, using either direct fluorination (10% F2gas diluted in N2) or plasma-enhanced fluorination in radio-frequency cold plasmas using fluorinated gases (CF4, CHF3). Mechanisms of fluorination of these co-elastomers have been proposed on the basis of the assignment of the different components of the XPS spectra...Read less <
