摘要
This work presents a post-cured treatment alternative for photopolymer substrates considering the plasma produced via the sputtering process. The sputtering plasma effect was discussed, analyzing the properties of zinc/zinc oxide (Zn/ZnO) thin films deposited on photopolymer substrates, with and without ultraviolet (UV) treatment as a post-treatment process, after manufacturing. The polymer substrates were produced from a standard Industrial Blend resin and manufactured using stereolithography (SLA) technology. After that, the UV treatment followed the manufacturer's instructions. The influence of the sputtering plasma as an extra treatment during the deposition of the films was analyzed. Characterization was performed to determine the microstructural and adhesion properties of the films. The results showed the effect of plasma as a post-cured treatment alternative: fractures were found in thin films deposited on polymers with previous UV treatment. In the same way, the films showed a repetitive printing pattern due to the phenomenon of polymer shrinkage caused by the sputtering plasma. The plasma treatment also showed an effect on the thicknesses and roughness values of the films. Finally, according to VDI-3198 standards, coatings with acceptable adhesion failures were found. The results provide attractive properties of Zn/ZnO coatings on polymeric substrates produced by additive manufacturing.
