Microfluidic chips are microsystems that utilize microfabrication technology to create functional units such as microchannels, micropumps, and microvalves on substrates like silicon, quartz, or polymer materials for fluid manipulation and analysis. These chips also serve as a crucial foundation for the development of organ-on-a-chip systems and fluid control.
As a professional supplier of microfluidic chips and organ-on-a-chip-related products, Matexcel provides clients with integrated, high-quality microfluidic chip accessories and solutions. Our product range covers the full suite of consumables and accessories required for microfluidic chip fabrication, including core components such as chip substrates, chip encapsulation adhesives, connectors, tubing, and fixtures.
| Categories | Typical Products | Main Functions & Features | Selection Guidelines |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chip Substrate | PDMS, PMMA, COC, COP, Glass, Silicon Wafer. | Forms the main structure of microfluidic chips; it determines optical transparency, gas permeability, biocompatibility, and chemical resistance. | Select based on requirements for cell culture (gas permeability), optical detection (transparency), and organic solvent resistance. |
| Bonding & Sealing Materials | Plasma treatment, UV-curable adhesive, thermal bonding film, pressure-sensitive adhesive, and solvent-assisted sealing adhesive. | Achieves permanent or reversible bonding of multi-layer chips, ensuring channel tightness and pressure resistance. | Low-temperature processes are preferred for cell-based chips; reversible sealing facilitates cleaning and replacement; the pressure rating shall match the operating pressure. |
| Microfluidic Fittings | Metal/plastic external tapered thread fittings (1/4-28, M6), Luer fittings, barbed fittings, ferrule fittings. | Connect tubing to chip inlets and outlets; prevent liquid leakage and withstand high pressure. | Match fitting type (standard threaded port, female Luer port, countersunk barbed port, etc.) with the outer diameter of tubing. |
| Tubing | PTFE, FEP, PEEK, Silicone tubing, PU tubing. | Transports liquids and gases; available with chemical resistance, low analyte adsorption, flexibility, or rigidity. | PEEK tubing for high-pressure applications; silicone tubing for cell culture scenarios; fluoropolymer tubing for low adsorption demands. |
| Clamps & Fixtures | Acrylic/metal compression fixtures, magnetic clamps, C-clamps, and custom quick-release clamping devices. | Secures chips and fittings; assists external pressurization for bonding and chip reuse. | Select according to chip geometry; take into account ease of operation, pressure resistance, temperature tolerance, and sterilization compatibility. |
| Connection Accessories | Reducer fittings, plugs, 3-way/4-way valves, manifolds, quick disconnects. | Enables flow splitting, merging, and on-off control; supports parallel connection of multiple chips. | Choose manual valves, solenoid valves, or quick-connect structures based on flow circuit layout and frequent disassembly needs. |
| Auxiliary Tools | Punch tools (biopsy punches), tubing cutters, wire strippers, deburring tools, and hex wrenches. | Prepares chip ports, cuts tubing precisely, and installs and removes fittings. | Precision punches are recommended for bores smaller than 1 mm; limit-style cutters are ideal for frequent operation. |
Our accessories and consumables are perfectly compatible with mainstream chip designs and fluid control equipment, helping clients quickly build reliable, reproducible experimental platforms, reduce development costs, and accelerate the transition from prototype to application.
