The influence of the external plasma parameters on the secondary ion mass spectra of plasma-deposited polystyrene films was investigated. From these data, information on the chemical character of the plasma polystyrene films was derived. In the range of deposition conditions applied in this study, the fragmentation of styrene is a minor process. The main process is probably the radical chain propagation to polymers. All the polystyrene plasma polymers, relying on ToF-SIMS, seem to be rather similar to a reference polystyrene oligomer sample. When the plasma polymers are exposed to air, extensive oxygen incorporation occurs. Oxygen uptake was found to alter the emission probabilities of secondary ions. A relation between the regularity of the plasma polymers and the amount of oxygen incorporation was found. The result was that the chemical regularity of the plasma polystyrene decreases when the effective power in the plasma is increased.

The relative partial flow rates of the co-monomers are used as deposition process parameters to vary and all other process parameters were constrained to conditions optimized for retention of functional groups. By doing this it is possible to control certain chemical properties of the copolymer films such as unsaturation, oxygen and hydroxyl group relative surface contents. The aging behavior of the plasma copolymer films on air was studied, too. Non-linear variations of relative oxygen contents, contents of C—OR species and contents of carbonyl species are obtained vs. variation of feed gas composition for both monomer combinations. The chemical character of the plasma copolymer films varies between the limits given by the respective plasma homopolymers. The observed non-linear correlations are discussed in terms of approaches developed for classic radical copolymerization. The aging behavior of the different plasma copolymers films depends on the feed gas composition. Principally these aging phenomena known from plasma polymer aging studies of that respective monomer which dominates the character of the plasma copolymer are observed.

The relative partial flow rate of the each monomer was used as the variable deposition parameter, while the other deposition parameters were kept constant at optimized values for the retention of functional groups. The effect of the variation in the relative partial flow rates of co-monomers on various chemical aspects of the films like unsaturation, nitrogen retention and branching was investigated revealing several non-linear correlations. This observation is taken as an indication for chemical copolymerization processes during film deposition. An attempt is made to compare these non-linear correlations with approaches which have been developed for classic radical copolymerization processes. The aging behavior of these plasma copolymer films was also studied; the results indicated a stabilization against oxidation in comparison to the aging of allylamine plasma homopolymers.
