Two different dielectric barrier discharge processes are presented, fed with the aerosol of the organic precursor, to deposit –CHO containing coatings from lactic acid (pdLA) and tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether (PEO-like) of possible interest in biomedical applications as biodegradable and non-fouling polymers, respectively.
