An experimental investigation of low temperature plasma sterilization, treatment, and polymerization processes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)This dissertation focuses on investigation of low temperature plasma processes. Different types of glow discharges including atmospheric pressure direct current (DC) plasma, low-pressure DC plasma, and low-pressure radio ... -
Investigation of plasmaion vapor deposition (IVD) hybrid coatings for corrosion protection and plasma destruction of oral bacteria
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)This dissertation reports the research results obtained in investigating low pressure plasma coatings for corrosion protection of aluminum ion vapor deposition (IVD) coated high-strength steels and in studying atmospheric ... -
Large-scale fabrication of SiC nanofibers and plasma interface engineering of polymer nanocomposites and dental composite restoration
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] SiC nanofibers in gram-scale per batch were synthesized by chemical vapor deposition. A systematic comparison of different sized graphite and multi-walled ... -
Nanomaterial surface modification for heat-transfer nanofluid and electrochemical DNA biosensor development
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Low-temperature plasma polymerization was performed to coat the individual nanomaterial not only for better suspension but also for thermal conductivity ... -
A plasma polymerization investigation and low temperature cascade arc plasma for polymeric surface modification
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)The plasma polymerization behavior of fluorocarbon systems was investigated using the monomers C₃F₆, C₂H₂F₄, C₄F₁₀ and C₃F₆O, which were compared to methane and butane, Section III. In Sections V and VII, surface modification ... -
A study of nanostructured materials toward coronary artery stenting and DNA-based biosensing
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Vascular stenting has emerged as a viable method for treating occluded arteries. Unfortunately, implanted stents are subject to re-obstruction triggered ...
