Surface Modification Techniques

Surface modification techniques involve altering the outer layer of a material to improve its properties, such as durability, corrosion resistance, or biocompatibility. These methods can include adding a thin coating, bonding new chemical groups, or physically changing the surface structure. The goal is to enhance performance for specific applications without changing the material’s core properties. Common techniques include plasma treatment, coating with specialized layers, and chemical etching. These processes are widely used in industries like healthcare, aerospace, and manufacturing to extend lifespan, improve safety, and enable better interaction with environments or other substances.
