• Description: The aim of this work was to determine the effect of plasma on the substrate and on the nanofibers themselves. The PA6 nanofibrous material and the PP carrier were exposed to the effects of dielectric barrier plasma generated in air at atmospheric pressure. Changes in chemical composition, the effect on adhesions to the support substrate and especially the plasma effect on the filtration efficiency of the nanofiber material were studied.
