The overall goal of this technique is to create planar and nonplanar three-dimensional paper microfluidic devices that are able to be unfolded during construction and after use through the patterning of aerosol adhesive. This method opens up a bra

We demonstrate the use of patterned aerosol adhesives to construct 3D paper microfluidic devices. This method of adhesive application forms semi-permanent bonds between layers, enabling single-use devices to be non-destructively disassembled after use and to ease folding complex nonplanar structures.
