“…According to different materials and application scenarios, a large number of surface modification methods have been proposed. Surface modification is a popular research field, especially super-hydrophobic surfaces (which provide a wet angle of more than 150 degrees), including Nano-surface [86,87,90], which has been a new research hotspot in the past two decades [74,89,91]. The surface modification method of PDMS mentioned above is also applicable to common microfluidic materials such as plexiglass.…”

Microfluidics offer microenvironments for reagent delivery, handling, mixing, reaction, and detection, but often demand the affiliated equipment for liquid control for these functions. As a helpful tool, the capillary pressure control valve (CPCV) has become popular to avoid using affiliated equipment. Liquid can be handled in a controlled manner by using the bubble pressure effects. In this paper, we analyze and categorize the CPCVs via three determining parameters: surface tension, contact angle, and microchannel shape. Finally, a few application scenarios and impacts of CPCV are listed, which includes how CPVC simplify automation of microfluidic networks, work with other driving modes; make extensive use of microfluidics by open channel, and sampling and delivery with controlled manners. The authors hope this review will help the development and use of the CPCV in microfluidic fields in both research and industry.
