Drop impacts on electrospun nanofiber membranes [PDF]

Soft Matter, 2012
This work reports a systematic study of drop impacts of polar and non-polar liquids onto different electrospun nanofiber membranes (of 8–10 μm thickness and pore sizes of 3–6 μm) with an increasing degree of hydrophobicity. The liquids studied were water, FC 7500 (Fluorinert fluid) and hexane. The nanofibers used were electrospun from polyacrylonitrile

In vivo performance of antibiotic embedded electrospun PCL membranes for prevention of abdominal adhesions [PDF]

, 2007
The aim of this study was to prepare nonwoven materials from poly(-caprolactone) (PCL) and their antibiotic containing forms by electrospinning, so as to prevent postsurgery induced abdominal adhesions in rats. -Caprolactone was first polymerized by ring-

Collagen immobilization on ultra-thin nanofiber membrane to promote endothelial monolayer formation

Journal of Tissue Engineering, 2019
The endothelialization on the poly (ε-caprolactone) nanofiber has been limited due to its low hydrophilicity. The aim of this study was to immobilize collagen on an ultra-thin poly (ε-caprolactone) nanofiber membrane without altering the nanofiber ...
