The effect of plasma treatment on the properties of poly(ethylene terephthalate) track membranes has been investigated. The influence of plasma treatment conditions and composition of plasma-forming gas on basic membrane characteristics–pore size and shape, wettability, hydrodynamic, and electrochemical properties–were studied. It is shown that the plasma treatment of membranes can significantly improve their performance characteristics and give them a lot of useful properties.
