Abstract
Collagen biomaterial as a modifier of thermoplastic adhesive. Fibril proteins of skin, mainly collagen and keratin are significant and perspective biopolymers for selected technical applications e.g. bonding. Native collagen without modification is relatively difficult to be processed for intended applications. Presented work describes the possibility of low-temperature plasma to modify the film surface of the collagen type I. Collagen film was treated in two plasma environments; low temperature plasma N2/H2 was used for grafting the amino groups and CO2 plasma ensured grafting the carboxyl groups. Functionalized collagen film provided stronger adhesion and compatibility. The results have shown that the collagen adhesive bond gained high strength, flexibility and required strong gluing, e.g. books or wood veneered materials. Keywords:
