Abstract
Micro-molded parts can be defined as parts with microgram weight, parts with micro-structured surface, and parts with micro-precision. In this study, various micro-scale molded parts for various polymers were produced by using a precision micro-molding machine. Molded parts with nano-structure surface were also produced to analyze the effect of molding conditions on replication of surface pattern and higher-order structure development of molded parts. Replication of molded parts was influenced by material properties, molding conditions and size of surface pattern. Higher-order structure of molded parts was investigated by using polarized microscope. Skin-shear-core regions inside the molded parts were observed and shear region affected to surface replication.
