Problems solved by technology

However, there are still certain defects, such as the elasticity and thermal expansion of materials in processing, which make it difficult to obtain high accuracy, and also limit the use of soft lithography in multi-level micromachining, because the elastic mold is too soft to obtain Large aspect ratio, too large or too small aspect ratio will lead to deformation and distortion of the microstructure
[0008] In summary, the hot pressing method, molding method, injection molding method, and soft etching method mainly depend on the properties of the mold, and the disadvantages of the mold such as short service life or high price greatly limit the promotion of these technologies, while laser ablation The production efficiency of the method is low, the price is expensive, and it is difficult to mass-produce polymer microfluidic polymer chips

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a microfluidic chip fabrication technology, which is mainly used for the fabrication of high molecular polymer microfluidic chips. Background technique [0002] The manufacturing technologies of polymer microfluidic chips mainly include hot pressing method, molding method, injection molding method, laser ablation method, LIGA technology, soft etching method, etc. [0003] The hot pressing method is a widely used chip fabrication technology for rapidly replicating electrophoretic microchannels. In the hot pressing method, the properties of the mold, such as surface roughness, hardness, and direct friction coefficient with the substrate material, directly determine the quality of the obtained microchannels. [0004] The main steps of the molding method are, firstly, adopt photolithography and etching to manufacture the positive mold of microchannel concavity, and then pour liquid high molecular polymer on the positive mold, and ...
