• Description: Surface barrier discharge operated at atmospheric pressure was used for deposition of thin hydrophobic films from mixture of nitrogen with C4F8 on the paper substrate. The plasma was investigated by means of optical emission spectroscopy. Surface properties of the deposited films were studied by means of the contact angle measurements. The colorimetric parameters such as whiteness, yellowness or brightness of samples were measured in its deposited state and also in UV exposed states.
