DescriptionPiranha is a powerful mix of sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide, used to clean microfluidic channels and render surfaces highly hydrophilic. Since it acts as an oxidizer, it is particularly useful against organics. The idea is to mix 1 part hydrogen peroxide into 3 parts sulphuric acid. For microfluidic cleansing, you'll only require a small amount (a few ml). Don't make any more then you need! Preparation |
