Corona treatment is an essential process used in the flexible packaging industry to improve adhesion on low surface-energy polymers. This paper explores how corona treatment prepares polymers for adhesion, how surface energy correlates to a good bond, forms of measurement and common pitfalls to avoid. By understanding the function of corona treatment and the science of the bond, converters can achieve consistent adhesion in printing, coating and laminating applications.
