Ultrasonic Degradation of Link-Functionalized Polymers for the Activation of Chemical Reactions

Abstract

dc:description

The third part of this work describes a simple laboratory experiment for junior high or high school students that promotes understanding of photolithography, crosslinking density, and the process of photopolymerization, while demonstrating the power of rapid prototyping used to fabricate microscale devices. The versatility of photolithography for microchip construction is exemplified by allowing each student to fabricate polymers in virtually any shape imaginable, including his or her silhouette.
