Surface treatment on the plastic petri dish Here, a plastic petridish made of ABS polymer, were used to do surface modification. These ABS polymers are highly resistant to alcohols, aqueous acids but it is soluble in ketones, esters, ethylene dichloride and acetone. Hence, here it is used as an etchant for surface modification and this surface modified perti dish can be used as a template to create irregular surface roughness on the PDMS film. Calculation of the applied force Example: Hence, Here the external force using a linear motor. Hence, the force were calculated with equation, = - (1) F = Force m = Mass a = Acceleration m = 2.144 Kg a = 0.5 m/s 2 F = 2.144 Kg.5 m/s 2 F = 1.072 N S3
Equations used for calculating power and power density = - (1) I = Short circuit current R= Resistance Power Density = Power/ Area - (2) S4
