چکیده مقاله :
We present the results of experimental studies of the barrier negative corona of constant voltage excited by a metal tip over a metal plane covered by a thin film of polytetrafluoroethylene. It is shown that bright surface discharges - streamers - form on the dielectric surface as the voltage increases. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of the surface streamer discharge, initiated by dc barrier corona in an argon atmosphere, on the surface properties of polytetrafluoroethylene films. The change in the surface properties of PTFE films under the influence of low-current surface discharge plasma initiated by a DC voltage barrier corona in argon has been studied.
