title: The effect of adhesion promoter on the adhesion of PDMS to different substrate materials.
abstract: The effect of the adhesion promoter GE SS4120 on the adhesion strength of PDMS to different substrates was tested. The adhesion to silicon, glass and aluminium was significantly increased, while adhesion of PDMS to Teflon remained poor, and the adhesion strength of PDMS to PDMS decreased.
