Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2019243378A1] The present invention relates to a device for coating containers with a barrier layer having at least one plasma chamber, which encloses at least one treatment space, in which at least one container with a container interior can be inserted and can be positioned in the treatment space, wherein a gas lance is provided which can be introduced into the container interior and which further acts as a microwave antenna, with the plasma chamber being designed to be capable at least of partial evacuation and being designed to fill the container interior at least partially with a plasma and a process gas. According to the invention, the device is designed such that the container can be preheated by means of a plasma, more particularly by means of a microwave plasma, using a noble gas which can be introduced into the container interior through the gas lance. The present invention also relates to a method for heating a container by means of a device in which heat is supplied by means of a plasma in a pressure range of 1-25 mbar, preferably in a pressure range of 1-5 mbar or in a pressure range of 15-25 mbar, using a noble gas.
