Abstract:
1. A method of treating a reinforcement cord, comprising the steps of A) atomizing a mixture of at least one polymerizable monomer selected from the group consisting of isoprene, butadiene, squalene, and styrene, a halogenated saturated hydrocarbon, and a carrier gas to form an atomized mixture, wherein the at least one monomer is present in a concentration range of from 10 to 50 percent by weight on a carrier gas free basis, and wherein the halogenated saturated hydrocarbon is present in a concentration range of from 90 to 50 percent by weight on a carrier gas free basis; B) generating an atmospheric pressure plasma from the atomized mixture; and C) exposing the reinforcement cord to the atmospheric pressure plasma; wherein the reinforcement cord is a steel reinforcement cord.
