Glass/resin composite structure and method for manufacturing same
A composite structure with high pressure resistance that is suitable for a flow channel is produced by reducing the number of components while maintaining the excellent chemical resistance and high stress tolerance inherent to a glass substrate and a resin substrate. A glass substrate surface is modified with a hydrolyzable silicon compound, and the glass substrate is brought into contact with the resin substrate. Subsequently, the contact surface between the glass substrate and the resin substrate is heated to a temperature from the glass transition temperature to the pyrolysis temperature of the resin substrate, eliminating gaps between the glass substrate and the resin substrate to bring them into close contact with each other, and causing chemical binding or anchor effects between the glass substrate and the resin substrate via the hydrolyzable silicon compound. Thus, the glass substrate and the resin substrate are firmly fixed to each other.
1. A flow cell for a liquid analyzer, comprising:
a glass substrate,
a hydrolyzed silicon compound modifying a glass substrate surface of the glass substrate, and
a resin substrate,
wherein the glass substrate surface is in contact with a resin substrate surface of the resin substrate, and the glass substrate is adhered to the resin substrate via chemical bonding and anchor effects via the hydrolyzed silicon compound, and
wherein the resin substrate is polyether ether ketone resin, polyphenylene sulfide resin, or polyamide resin.
2. The flow cell according to claim 1 , wherein the glass substrate is synthetic silica glass, fused-silica glass, borosilicate glass, or soda glass.
3. The flow cell according to claim 1 , wherein a flow channel is disposed in the resin substrate.
