Electrospun Composite Lavandula Angustifolia Mill. Extract/PVP Nanofibers
Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 2, February 2026.This study presents novel fast‐dissolving nanofibers electrospun from polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) loaded with crude lavender extract. The fibers form an amorphous solid dispersion, disintegrate within 1.5 s, and release 70%–90% of their payload within 5 min, significantly outperforming the pure extract.
