The chemistry supplied with the system allows imprinting templates to be tailored to customer requirements. In general, it should be formed from a flexible material that is operable to conform to the curvature of the cylinder. It can be formed from any suitable material transparent for 395nm, for example: Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), Cyclic Olefin Copolymer (COC), or other light-curing resins/polymers.
