Comparison of PDMS and NOA Microfluidic Chips: Deformation, Roughness, Hydrophilicity and Flow Performance

Microfluidic devices are frequently manufactured with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) due to its affordability, transparency, and simplicity. However, high-pressure flow through PDMS microfluidic channels lead to an increase in channel size due to the compliance of the material. As a result, longer resp...
