A method of coating a surface with a polymer layer, which method comprises exposing said surface to a plasma comprising a monomeric unsaturated organic compound which comprises a chain of carbon atoms, which are optionally substituted by halogen; provided that where the compound is a perhalogenated alkene, it has a chain of at least 5 carbon atoms; so as to form an oil or water repellent coating on said substrate. Suitable compounds for use in the methods are compounds of formula (I) where R<1>, R<2> and R<3> are independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, haloalkyl or aryl optionally substituted by halo; provided that at least one of R<1>, R<2> or R<3> is hydrogen, and R<4> is a group X-R<5> where R<5> is an alkyl or haloalkyl group and X is a bond; a group of formula -C(O)O(CH2)nY- where n is an integer of from 1 to 10 and Y is a bond or a sulphonamide group; or a group -(O)pR<6>(O)q(CH2)t- where R<6> is aryl optionally substituted by halo, p is 0 or 1, q is 0 or 1 and t is 0 or an integer of from 1 to 10, provided that where q is 1, t is other than 0. The method is particularly useful in the production of oil- and/or water repellent fabrics. |
