Abstract

A method of making a microfluidic module is disclosed that includes forming a fluid flow channel in a self-bonding rebondable polyimide film to provide a channel sheet, the self-bonding rebondable polyimide film having a first mask layer self-bonded thereto; removing the first mask layer from the channel sheet after forming the fluid flow channel; and self-bonding the surface of the channel sheet exposed by removal of the first mask layer to a cover sheet.
