What we solve
Whether materials need to release or bond permanently,
both require precise chemistry control for consistent performance.

The real challenge
Corona oxidises your substrate. We don’t. By controlling gas composition, we graft specific functional
groups without polymer degradation.
Deposit ultra-thin functional layers (10–50nm) in a single pass. PFAS-free release coatings and barrier films at industrial speed.
Attach specific functional groups (NH₂, COOH, OH, …) without breaking the polymer backbone. Stable adhesion on PEEK, fluoropolymers, elastomers.
Deposit ultra-thin functional layers (10–50nm) in a single pass. PFAS-free release coatings and barrier films at industrial speed.
Our steps
01
Select the process gas composition to precisely match your target surface chemistry. Gas mixture determines which functional groups will be grafted onto the substrate.
Technical Spec
N₂, Ar, He + dopant
Outcome
Controlled reactive atmosphere
02
A high-voltage dielectric barrier electrode creates a cold plasma discharge at atmospheric pressure. The plasma is stable, continuous, and scalable to full web width.
Technical Spec
Atmospheric pressure, no vacuum
Outcome
Stable, uniform discharge
03
Reactive plasma species interact with the substrate surface. In grafting mode, functional groups (–NH₂, –COOH, –OH) attach covalently without breaking the polymer backbone.
Technical Spec
Grafting or AP-PECVD
Outcome
Covalent surface modification
04
In AP-PECVD mode, an ultra-thin functional layer deposits uniformly across the full web width in a single pass. PFAS-free release coatings at 1–20 nm thickness.
Technical Spec
1–20 nm, single pass
Outcome
Uniform functional layer
05
120+ days for activation. Several years for coatings. Stable surface chemistry, depending on substrate and process.
Technical Spec
120+ days, no ageing

Ximofilm eliminated silicone contamination entirely. Release force is more consistent and recyclability audit passes first time. We will not go back.
