Melt Electrospinning Writing of Highly Ordered Large Volume Scaffold Architectures
Advanced Materials, 2018 AbstractThe additive manufacturing of highly ordered, micrometer‐scale scaffolds is at the forefront of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine research. The fabrication of scaffolds for the regeneration of larger tissue volumes, in particular, remains a major challenge. A technology at the convergence of additive manufacturing and electrospinning–

Modeling 3D melt electrospinning writing by response surface methodology
Materials and Design, 2018 Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) melt electrospinning writing (MEW) is a promising technique for 3D printing of porous scaffolds with well-defined geometrical features. The diameter of electrospun fibers strongly affect the achievable resolution and consequently several other physical, mechanical, and structural properties of the fabricated scaffold ...

Melt Electrospinning Writing Process Guided by a “Printability Number” [PDF]
Journal of Manufacturing Science and Engineering, 2017 The direct electrostatic printing of highly viscous thermoplastic polymers onto movable collectors, a process known as melt electrospinning writing (MEW), has significant potential as an additive biomanufacturing (ABM) technology. MEW has the hitherto unrealized potential of fabricating three-dimensional (3D) porous interconnected fibrous mesh ...

Additive manufacturing of scaffolds with sub-micron filaments via melt electrospinning writing [PDF]
Biofabrication, 2015 The aim of this study was to explore the lower resolution limits of an electrohydrodynamic process combined with direct writing technology of polymer melts. Termed melt electrospinning writing, filaments are deposited layer-by-layer to produce discrete three-dimensional scaffolds for in vitro research. Through optimization of the parameters (flow rate,

Fibre pulsing during melt electrospinning writing
BioNanoMaterials, 2016 AbstractAdditive manufacturing with electrohydrodynamic direct writing is a promising approach for the production of polymeric microscale objects. In this study we investigate the stability of one such process, melt electrospinning writing, to maintain accurate placement of the deposited fibre throughout the entire print.
