POLYOLEFINS FIND INCREASING USE IN AUTOMOTIVE AND MEDICAL APPLICATIONS. HOWEVER, THERMOPLASTIC OLEFINS ARE DIFFICULT TO BOND WITH ADHESIVES BECAUSE OF THEIR LOW SURFACE ENERGY AND LOW WETTABILITY. ACCORDINGLY, THESE MATERIALS REQUIRE PRETREATMENT BEFORE ADHESIVE BONDING. THIS ARTICLE REVIEWS THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL ASPECTS OF ELECTRICAL DISCHARGE TREATMENT FOR MOLDED AND EXTRUDED POLYOLEFIN PARTS.
