The polymerization of hexamethyldisiloxane by plasma (glow discharge) on activated charcoal was investigated. The effects of discharge power, discharge duration, and monomer flow rate on polymer deposition were examined. Maximum deposition was observed when the applied power, monomer flow rate, and discharge duration were 20 W, 50 cm 3 /min, and 1 h, respectively. The deposited film was investigated by IR, SEM, and ESCA. The same tests were also carried out for plasma‐induced polymer deposits.
