| Advance Sterilization Product Equipments,
A low low-temperature sterilizer offers faster processing time,
enhanced performance and terminal 'Self Ready' sterilization, A
system for next generation low-temperature hydrogen peroxide gas
plasma sterilizer for processing medical devices and surgical instruments.
It has a significant faster, 1 hour processing time and enhanced
cycle allowing a reduction in inventories of expensive instruments
while prolonging the life medical devices. Of course, people will
continue to experience the benefits they have come to expect, safety,
efficacy and superior materials compatibility. |

Glass pipe tube in a dialysis filters
are plasma treated to improve flow of blood to avoid clotting. |

Catheters are treated to enhance liquid
flowability |

Preparation for adhesive bonding needles
to syringe hubs |

Biocompatibility, The activation of
surface to prepare them for cell growth or protein bonding is another
important application of plasma modification. Examples of in vitro
uses of plasma treatment include preparation of petri dishes and
micotiter plates for laboratory experiments or drug-production
purposes. |

of the air atmosphere especially near the ground where it activates
some species of mushroom bacteria spores growth. |

| PLASTIC INDUSTRY |
| Surface modification using gas plasma
is a versatile process, with system on the market for treating
from small components like hubs or balloons up to very large and
complex substrates, from fibers, nonwovens, wovens, and paper to
plastic foils, plastic polypropylene to some metal holders and
handles. |

| METAL WORKS |
| The application of Vacuum Arc, Also
known as a cathodic arc, the vacuum arc is a device for creating
a plasma from solid metal. An arc is struck on the metal, and arc's
high power density vaporizes and ionizes the metal, creating a
plasma which sustain the arc. The vacuum arc is different from
high-pressure arc because the metal vapor itself is ionized, rather
than an ambient gas/ The vacuum arc is used in industry for creating
metal and metal compound coatings. |
| Often metal surfaces becomes contaminated
with greases, oil, waxes and other organic compounds as well as
oxide layers. For some procedures such as sputtering, varnishing,
gluing, printing and coating, bonding, soldering and brazing, it
can be fundamentally important to use absolute clean and oxide-free
surface. |

| SEMICONDUCTORS WAFER FABRICATION |
| Plasma etching is currently widely used
in the fabrication of silicon-based circuits. The process is used
to produce high-resolution patterns in many of the thin layers
of the circuits and to selectively remove masking layers, it is
based on the following sequence of microscopic reaction steps.
A plasma process is used to transfer lithographically defined patterns
into a thin layers of a SILICON material. |
