Short Report on Polymer Based Automated Fluid Machines for Applications in Microfluidics
Abstract: In this experimental work, a couple of gradual expansion microchannels are fabricated by polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) using the maskless lithography, hot embossing lithography and direct bonding technique. Dyed ethylene glycol and dyed water are the prepared working liquids. The CMOS camera catching 25 frames per second with a corresponding time-scale resolution of 0.04 second is used to record each surface-driven microfluidic flow of dyed ethylene glycol and dyed water in the …

Report on Microfluidic Flow of Dyed Working Liquids inside the Polymeric Devices
Abstract: In this experimental work, a single SU-8 based glass microfluidic device is engineered by the maskless lithography and indirect bonding technique. Also, total nine individual polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) based microfluidic devices are fabricated by maskless lithography, hot embossing lithography, and direct bonding technique. Dyed ethylene glycol, dyed ethanol, and dyed aqueous isopropyl alcohol (50% water, 50% IPA) are prepared and used as working liquids to record each surface-driven microfluidic flow. The …

Recording of Leakage-free Surface-Driven Capillary Flow of Dyed Water in the Dual Sudden Contraction Microchannels
Abstract: Dual sudden contractionpolymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) microchannels are fabricated by the maskless lithography, hot embossing lithography, direct bonding technique, and atmospheric pressure air dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma processing. The surface-driven capillary flow of dyed water is faster on the processed PMMA surface than the pristine PMMA surface. The surface-driven capillary flow of dyed water is slower in the wider portion and faster in the narrower portion of any dual sudden contraction …
