More about PDMS Bonding
[email protected]

I found this paper to be very helpful on the topic:

Three-dimensional micro-channel fabrication in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)
elastomer
Jo, Byung-Ho (Univ of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign); Van Lerberghe, Linda M.;
Motsegood, Kathleen M.; Beebe, David J. Source: Journal of
Microelectromechanical Systems, v 9, n 1, 2000, p 76-81

They talk about bonding PDMS and aligment techniques.

Hope that helps,
Joe Grogan
