Abstract
Exposure of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) to argon plasma results in chemical modification of the polymer near the surface. Interestingly, PTFE modification can be induced by the sub-band gap ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. In the latter case, the changes in the chemical structure are very subtle, and they are practically invisible to conventional experimental techniques. Raman spectra of irradiated and raw samples show practically identical peaks. However, the baseline that is commonly considered as an unwanted spectral component contains an important information that reflects the minor structural changes. With the proper data analysis, this allows us to visualize the effects of the argon plasma and sub-band gap UV irradiation on the polymer.
