Biocomposites reinforced with natural fibers: 2000–2010 (2012, methodology): “Polyester composites reinforced with flax fibers, which were submitted to helium cold plasma treatment, were investigated by means of water permeation measurements and mechanical tests [192].”
Effect of Plasma Treatment on Structure, Wettability of Jute Fiber and Flexural Strength of its Composite (2009, background): “This could be due to the heavy degradation of fiber with the formation of pits as seen in the Figure 2, after 15min plasma treatment and thus lowering the strength of the composite [27].”
