             abstract = "Polymer dielectrics are used in several areas. Previous works have 
                         shown a great influence of hydrophobicity on the surface breakdown 
                         (BD) voltage of some dielectrics. The use of energetic particles 
                         to modify polymer surfaces is a method widely employed. In this 
                         work, the surface of ultrahigh molecular polyethylene (UHMWPE) and 
                         poly-methyl-methacrylate (PMMA) polymers samples has been modified 
                         by a treatment technique known as plasma immersion ion 
                         implantation (PIII). After treatment by PIII, it was shown that 
                         the polymer wettability decreased and its surface hydrophobicity 
                         improved. The treated samples were characterized using contact 
                         angle measurements with distilled water and compared before and 
                         after the PIII treatment to verify respectively changes on surface 
                         hydrophobicity. Surface flashover was tested by using a special 
                         breakdown testing pulser.",
