Abstract

polymeric substrates are increasingly prevalent. Commercially accessible polymers include polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polypropylene (PP) Surfaces have less polar functional group density. As a result, these materials' adhesive properties are subpar by nature. As a result, creating a high-quality print on such polymer substrates has become difficult. Surface modification is now required for such surfaces as a result. The study covers the effect of different treatments dose on printability and the degree of surface modification. polymeric substrates are increasingly prevalent.
