Description Atmospheric pressure plasma pretreatment was studied as a dry alternative to conventional wet cleaning methods of glass, with the aim at industrial requirements. Diffuse coplanar surface barrier discharge (DCSBD) and multi-hollow surface dielectric barrier discharge in air at atmospheric pressure were used on soda-lime glass. Surface analyses by water contact angle measurement, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy were complemented by industrial ball drop and bending tests realized on laminated safety glass. A highly effective and non-invasive surface treatment suitable for large-area processing was achieved with the plasma of DCSBD. Targeting the industrial applications, the DCSBD system was adjusted to the devices to enable contactless and in-line electrode implementation to the manufacturing processes.
