3D-Printed Microfluidic Droplet Generator with Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Polymers

3D-Printed Microfluidic Droplet Generator with Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Polymers

Droplet generation has been widely used in conventional two-dimensional (2D) microfluidic devices, and has recently begun to be explored for 3D-printed droplet generators. A major challenge for 3D-printed devices is preventing water-in-oil droplets from sticking to the interior surfaces of the dropl...
