Abstract
This study adopted the novel magnetic roller soft mold embossing technique of the soft mold preparation method, embossing, combined with the existing gas-assisted UV-curable technique, to develop an innovative magnetic-assisted continuous roller platform. Using the advantages of uniform and accurate control of applied pressure of the magnetic disk, this study used the magnetic roller soft mold embossing and UV-curable technique for replicating microstructure patterns, resulting in a more mature micro-nano embossing technology and application. The experimental results showed that the new magnetic roller soft mold preparation method can accurately cast and replicate micro-nano structures of Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) composite magnetic iron powder, and the magnetic disk can impose uniform pressure to effectively implement complete filling during the rolling process. This innovative process provides a simple and rapid molding mechanism, which significantly improves the microstructure pattern replication technique.
