The surface coating of sealed microchannels is useful for a variety of applications in microfluidics and lab‐on‐a‐chip devices. This paper demonstrates a novel coating technique for a bonded polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microchannel using atmospheric pressure microplasma. Plasma was generated by using two types of electrode arrangements: (i) needle–aluminum foil with dielectric barrier (DB) and (ii) needle–needle configuration without DB. The microplasma configuration with the DB was selected for deposition in this study. The monomer ethylenediamine was used as organic precursor for plasma polymerization. Oil‐in‐water microemulsions were formed in a T‐shaped microchannel in order to test the stability and durability of the plasma polymerized films. The coatings were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, and contact angle measurements.
