A new reagent for surface treatment of polytetrafluoroethylene

Abstract

Solutions of solvated electrons in the presence of magnesium offer many advantages for the surface treatment of PTFE when compared to the classical solutions of solvated electrons in the presence of alkalis: the polymer remains white instead of black, its surface is not destroyed and presents a controlled hydrophilic character.
