Problems solved by technology

The existing manufacturing methods of microfluidic systems mainly include photolithography, soft imprinting, laser etching, direct writing assembly, etc., but most of these methods require expensive special forming equipment and skilled operation skills
At the same time, due to the complexity of the natural microvascular network, the existing microfluidic channel system manufacturing methods are mostly realized by simulating the shape and geometric parameters of the natural microvascular structure or engineering simplification of the natural microvascular structure. affect the structural performance of the prepared microfluidic system

Abstract

The invention relates to a precise molding method of a biomimetic micro-channel system based on plant veins. According to the invention, leaf mesophyll parts are removed, such that a leaf vein structure is obtained; a metal film is sputtered on the surface of the leaf vein structure, such that a vein mask is obtained; with a mask light curing technology, the vein mask is transferred onto a photoresist adhered to the surface of a glass plate or a silicon wafer; development is carried out, and a photoresist vein structure is obtained; a metal film is sputtered on the surface of the photoresist vein structure; the material is placed in an organic solvent, such that a metal film mask layer is formed on non-vein areas; a vein channel silicon mold or resin mold is manufactured; and a silicone rubber mold with a vein channel structure negative shape is cloned; and the silicone rubber mold is adopted as a template, such that complicated biomimetic vein micro-channel structures can be precisely duplicated on various materials. With the method provided by the invention, defects such as easy deformation, easy damage, and unsuitability for situations with high temperatures of a method for directly utilizing natural plant veins as a mold are overcome, and a possibility is provided for manual modification of natural vein structural performance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bionic manufacturing of complex microfluidic channel systems, in particular to a precise forming method of a bionic microfluidic channel system based on plant leaf veins. Background technique [0002] Many living organisms in nature are rich in complex microvascular networks such as plant leaf veins and animal vascular networks, which structurally ensure the effective transmission of nutrients, water, oxygen and other substances in the living body, which is crucial to maintaining the activity and function of living organisms important. At present, research on the construction of artificial functional components such as self-healing materials, complex microfluidic devices, and biological tissue and organ scaffolds by simulating the microvascular network inside natural living bodies has become a frontier and hot spot in the field of bionic manufacturing in the world. The existing manufacturing methods of m...
