The use of static Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS) in the characterization of polymer surfaces and interfaces between polymers and metals is described. Examples are given of the use of SIMS to study the effects of plasma treatments on polyimide surfaces and for the analysis of the interface in metallized polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).
