Abstract :
The present paper analysis the suitability of using the polymer casting replication method for the fabrication of microfluidic components. As test structure it is used a passive micromixer with a complex geometry that contains tight angles and several curvatures. There are test three types of masters for the replication, made in silicon, SU-8 and copper.
