Description
Fluo-ST is a liquid coating agent used to make glass, PDMS, or plastic surfaces hydrophobic. Simply clean your microfluidic chip, treat with Fluo-ST, and rinse to achieve water contact angles as high as 105°! Fluo-ST1 is compatible with glass & PDMS while Fluo-ST3 is compatible with popular microfluidic materials including COP/COC, PMMA, and FlexDym™! Hydrophobic surfaces are stable up for up to 12 months after treatment if kept in an inert environment.
