- Heat & Sunlight: Direct sunlight or locations with radiant heat.
III. 4 Key Operational Points for Corona Treatment
- Precision Power Control: Higher is not always better; excessive power can damage the material's microstructure. Accurately calculate Watt Density to ensure even energy distribution.
- Real-time In-line Processing: Treatment effects decay over time. For best activity, In-line treatment immediately before printing or coating is recommended.
- Stable Tension Control: Maintain strict control over winding tension to prevent film wrinkling or uneven discharge caused by electrostatic adsorption.
- Substantive Testing: Do not rely solely on equipment settings. Regularly use Dyne Pens to physically test surface energy and ensure quality standards are met.
IV. 3 Variables Affecting Treatment Results
- Material Composition: Different materials react differently; additives (such as slip agents) can increase treatment difficulty.
- Environmental Interference: Humidity, dust, and storage duration all impact the effectiveness of the treatment.
- Equipment Condition: Dirty electrodes or incorrect gaps can lead to uneven treatment or unwanted "back-side treatment."
V. Safety Operating Procedures for Corona Treatment
Due to high voltage and chemical reactions, the following safety protocols must be strictly followed:
- Respiratory Protection: Ventilation & Ozone Safety
- Risk: Inhaling excessive Ozone (O3) can cause lung damage.
- Countermeasure: Ensure the exhaust system is running at all times. If odors are strong, wear an activated carbon mask or specialized respirator.
- Electrical Protection: High Voltage & Shock Prevention
- Risk: The equipment operates at extremely high voltage.
- Countermeasure: Install safety interlock doors (power cuts when opened). Ensure discharge stops automatically when the machine stops moving.
- Environmental Protection: Fire & Static Control
- Risk: Static sparks can trigger fires, especially near volatile solvents.
- Countermeasure: Install static eliminator bars. Operating near flammable chemicals or solvents is strictly prohibited.
- Maintenance & Testing Safety
- Cleaning: Regularly clean electrode buildup to prevent electrical leakage.
- Chemical Contact: Always wear gloves during Dyne testing to avoid skin contact or inhalation of solvent vapors.
