Fast built and designed microdevices for early-stage liquid-liquid systems studies

Abstract

This paper presents a comparison of two different microdevices able to produce oil in water droplets without wall treatment or surfactant. A fast technique to build capillaries assembled devices and a process for silicon-glass microdevices are exposed The aim of this paper is to compare those devices in terms of droplets generation and to show that the capillary assembled device can be used for preliminary tests in droplet generation as a precursor for silicon-glass microdevices.
