A Method for Simultaneous Polishing and Hydrophobization of Polycarbonate for Microfluidic Applications

Here we present a new methodology for chemical polishing of microchannels in polycarbonate (PC). Tuning the time of exposition and the concentration of ammonia, the roughness arising from the micromachining process can be significantly reduced or completely removed while preserving the structure of...
