bonding su-8 layer with pdms?

Never tried it myself, but this reference:

Vlachopoulou et al. A low temperature surface modification assisted
method for bonding plastic substrates. Journal of Micromechanics and
Microengineering (2009) vol. 19 (1) pp. 015007

Seems like it should work.  Once you skip past the bonding to PMMA
then they do mention the likelihood of bonding to SU-8.  Worth a quick
try.

Good luck.
