Multiphysics analysis and practical implementation of an ionic soft actuator-based microfluidic device toward the design of a POCT compatible active micromixer [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Electroactive-Polymers (EAPs) are one of the best soft materials with great applications in active microfluidics. Ionic ones (i-EAPs) have more promising features for being appropriate candidates to use in active microfluidic devices. Here, as a case study, we have designed and fabricated a microfluidic micromixer using an i-EAP named Ionic Polymer ...
