Mechanisms involved in surface modification of PVDF upon exposure to diffusing argon plasma with samples kept at the floating potential: (a) polymer is exposed to slow ions, weak VUV radiation and radicals or residual atmosphere, (b) formation of a gradient surface film and radical-dependent surface oxidation, and (c) full surface oxidation upon exposure to ambient conditions.
