Plasma Applications

In electronics manufacturing, plasma surface treatment is essential for improving adhesion, reliability, and process yield across critical assembly and packaging steps. By removing contaminants and activating surfaces at a molecular level, plasma enables stronger bonds for processes such as die attach, wire bonding, underfill, molding, and conformal coating. Nordson offers a broad range of plasma treatment solutions that support Primary (Direct and Reactive Ion Etch), Secondary, and Secondary Ion‑Free Plasma modes—each delivering a different balance of chemical activity, ion energy, and UV exposure. Understanding these plasma modes helps manufacturers select the optimal Nordson plasma system to achieve effective plasma cleaning and surface activation while protecting sensitive devices.
