Near-Field Electrospinning [PDF]
A near-field electrospinning (NFES) process has been developed to deposit solid nanofibers in a direct, continuous, and controllable manner. A tungsten electrode with tip diameter of 25 microm is used to construct nanofibers of 50-500 nm line width on silicon-based collectors while the liquid polymer solution is supplied in a manner analogous to that ...

AbstractMelt electrospinning is relatively under‐investigated compared to solution electrospinning but provides opportunities in numerous areas, in which solvent accumulation or toxicity are a concern. These applications are diverse, and provide a broad set of challenges to researchers involved in electrospinning.

Blend electrospinning, coaxial electrospinning, and emulsion electrospinning techniques [PDF]
Electrospinning techniques are among the key fiber forming technologies with potential in medical and technical industries. However, besides their unique characteristics, such as high surface-to-volume ratio, fibrous structure resembling extracellular matrix, and high number of interconnected pores; the electrospun structures find their roles also in ...

Cyclodextrin nanofibers by electrospinning [PDF]
We have demonstrated that cyclodextrin (CD) (a non-polymeric system) can be electrospun into nanofibers by itself; methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (MbetaCD) nanofibers were electrospun and it was observed that the success of the electrospinning of the CD nanofibers strongly depends on (i) type of solvent, (ii) CD solution concentration and (iii ...

Direct synthesis of highly stretchable ceramic nanofibrous aerogels via 3D reaction electrospinning
Ceramic aerogels are generally brittle and often tend to structurally collapse under large external tensile strain. Here the authors synthesize large-scale stretchable ceramic aerogels with interwoven crimped nanofibers by combining electrohydrodynamic ...

Electrospinning to Forcespinning™
A new process called Forcespinning™ has been developed to make nanofibers from a wide range of materials. This new method uses centrifugal force, rather than electrostatic force as in the electrospinning process. The Forcespinning™ method uses either solutions or solid materials that are solution or melt spun into nanofibers.
