Reactive Magnetospinning of Nano‐ and Microfibers [PDF]
Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2015 AbstractReactive spinning of nano‐ and microfibers that involves very fast chemical reactions and ion exchange is a challenge for the common methods for nanofiber formation. Herein, we introduce the reactive magnetospinning method. This procedure is based on the magnetic‐field‐directed collision of ferrofluid droplets with liquid droplets that contain ...
