Surface Functionalization of Polyethylene by Silicon Nitride Laser Cladding

Surface Functionalization of Polyethylene by Silicon Nitride Laser Cladding

Functional coatings are commonly applied to biomaterials in order to improve their properties. In this work, polyethylene was coated with a silicon nitride (Si<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub>) powder using a pulsed laser source in a nitrogen gas atmosphere. Several analytical techni...
