Plasmatreat Launches HydroPlasma®: A Sustainable Surface Cleaning Breakthrough

Plasmatreat GmbH, the global leader in atmospheric plasma technology, has recently revealed HydroPlasma®, an innovative and environmentally friendly solution for ultra-precise cleaning of glass and metal surfaces. By merging the proven efficacy of Openair-Plasma® with the reactive power of ionized water, HydroPlasma® sets a new standard for eliminating stubborn organic and inorganic contaminants such as fingerprints, oils, salts, and greases without the use of harsh chemicals.

Revolutionizing Cleanliness in High-Tech Industries


In sectors such as automotive, electronics, aerospace, and medical manufacturing, even microscopic contaminants can jeopardize adhesion in critical processes like bonding, coating, printing, or sealing. Traditional cleaning methods often rely on solvents or wet chemical treatments. In contrast, HydroPlasma® offers a sustainable, chemical-free alternative that utilizes only compressed air, electricity, and water. This state-of-the-art technology not only enhances cleaning efficiency but also promotes environmentally friendly production.

Understanding How HydroPlasma® Works


The patented HydroPlasma® process injects water into a plasma jet, where it ionizes into a highly reactive cleaning stream. A precision nozzle directs this stream onto surfaces, dissolving residues with an effect similar to that of a detergent, eliminating the need for aggressive chemicals. Unlike conventional methods, HydroPlasma®:

  • - Effectively removes stubborn contaminants (e.g., fingerprints, inorganic residues).
  • - Protects sensitive substrates with a cooling effect that prevents thermal damage.
  • - Increases surface energy to improve wettability in downstream processes.

Complementing Openair-Plasma® for Unmatched Flexibility


While Openair-Plasma® is ideal for removing light organic contaminants (like dust and oils), HydroPlasma® extends its capabilities to tackle difficult inorganic residues. When paired, these technologies provide an VOC-free and scalable cleaning solution for industries that demand uncompromising cleanliness.

Applications Across Various Sectors


HydroPlasma® seamlessly integrates into existing production lines, including automotive manufacturing, electronics, and precision optics. Its gentle yet powerful cleaning is perfect for:
  • - Automotive: Ensuring perfect coating adhesion and structural bonding.
  • - Medical Devices: Meeting surface sterility standards.
  • - Aerospace: Preparing critical components for coatings.

Committing to Sustainability


By eliminating solvents and reducing waste, HydroPlasma® helps manufacturers lower their carbon footprint while maintaining workplace safety and process reliability.

What is Openair-Plasma®?


Plasma is known as the fourth state of matter, alongside solid, liquid, and gas. When additional energy is introduced into a gas, it ionizes and transitions into an energized plasma state. Whether it’s plastic, metal, glass, or paper, plasma technology is employed to modify surface properties according to process requirements.
