The purpose of corona treatment is to optimise the adhesion properties on polymer-based materials. The low surface energy of polymer-based substrates often leads to poor adhesion of inks, glues and coatings which by nature present significantly high surface energies. To obtain optimum adhesion, it is crucial that the surface energy of the substrate is equal or higher than the surface energy of the material to be applied to the polymer.

SyrinTEC offers a cost-effective method for optimising the adhesion properties of printing inks and coatings onto disposable syringes made from low surface energy polymers like PP and others.

This universal corona treater operates with highly durable ceramic electrodes, resulting in complete and uniform treatment of the entire circumference of the syringe barrel.

SyrinTEC corona treaters can be installed in any high speed printing line. The system includes a high frequency generator, high voltage transformers, ceramic electrodes and ozone filters.

SyrinTEC is available as standard and customised treaters, in linear and radial designs.
