Flame treatment, on the other hand, uses a burner with a specially adjusted flame. Silane-containing precursors are used in silicatization.<br \/>During pretreatment with plasma or flame treatment, process gases can also be added to enhance the activation effect. Flame systems also offer the option of <a href=\"https:\/\/arcotec.com\/en\/pretreatment-systems\/flame-treatment\/silica-coating\/\">silicatizing the treated surfaces<\/a> to further improve adhesion.
