Cold Plasma Surface Treatment

Today, the use of plasma as a key and interdisciplinary technology has become a modern technical standard in many industries and one that is experiencing dynamic expansion. Applications range from a few watts to more than 1000 watts and cover all industries.

With the CeraPlas^® element – a piezo-based plasma generator in a single component – TDK has developed an innovative new cold plasma source (ozonizer, ionizer) that is especially suited for use in low power applications and minimum space. The cold plasma (<50 °C) ignites in the ambient air or in external gases. Its light and compact size enables handheld devices, even battery-driven ones.

Our product portfolio comprises several types of CeraPlas elements, supporting tools for your development, as well as the ready-to-use piezobrush^® products. Later ones are the ideal fit in your production for subsequent processes benefiting from high surface energy like gluing, printing, coating and superfine cleaning. 

More powerful plasma systems are supported by relyon plasma, a subsidiary of TDK Electronics, specialized in the design of complete plasma systems using either PPD (Piezoelectric Direct Discharge based on CeraPlas) or its proprietary PAA (Pulsed Atmospheric Arc) technology. Together we can offer versatile solutions for plasma applications like customized modules for your application's unique requirements.
