Abstract

See full text

A method for fabricating parylene coated microfluidic valves is disclosed. A three-dimensional mold made of a first wax is formed. A sacrificial material made of a second wax is provided as a temporary support and then dissolved. A parylene coating is deposited onto the mold. A component material is poured onto the mold and cured, and the first wax is melted away. Further, a method for parylene coating of two-dimensional microfluidic components comprises: forming a lithographic mold of a microfluidic component, the mold made of a photoresist material; coating the lithographic mold with parylene; and removing the lithographic mold.
