Melt polymer drawn single and multi-capillary fibre-based electroosmotic pumps

Abstract: Microfluidic devices have been employed in micro-analytical systems and microelectronics using inexpensive, customisable fluid-handling automation at the microliter scale. Here we utilise a well-established fibre drawing technique, which offers a range of materials and capillary conformations, that can be utilized within microfluidic devices to control fluid movement via electroosmotic processes to produce a simple electroosmotic pump (EOP). Single capillary EOPs were fabricated from drawn PU capillary fibres … Show more

“…According to EDL theory [25][26][27], the electrical current, 𝐼, can be expressed by the relationship [I=κ×E×A/L], where E is the electrical eld strength applied to the microchannel (capillary) κ, is the ionic conductivity in the solution, A is the cross section of the capillary, and L is the length of capillary. Therefore, the measured current for the EOP was a direct indicator of the ow properties of the EOP [15]. Using this measurement, an estimate can be made whether the performance of EOP was reliable.…”

“…In these reported applications, material selection and fabrication technologies play a key role in the ow properties of formed microchannels. Materials such as silicon [8], glass [9] and PDMS [10][11][12][13], thermoplastic materials such as polyurethane (PU) [14,15], polycarbonate(PC) [16], poly(ethylene terephthalate glycol) (PETG) [17] and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) [18][19][20] all have been used to produce microchannels and micro uidic devices.…”
