In-Depth Information
Chapter 9 discusses the current applications of micromixers. Different applications need different
design requirements. The chapter discusses applications from the two major areas: lab-on-a-chip for
chemical and biochemical analysis and chemical production. This chapter also recommends materials
and mixer types for each application area.
