Shrinkage and colour in the production of micro-sized PDMS particles for microfluidic applications

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), due to its remarkable properties, is a suitable polymer for the production of microparticles with industrial and medical applications. The micro-sized PDMS liquid droplets suffer a pronounced shrinkage while curing to turn into solid particles. In this article, we report...
