Fast responsive and morphologically robust thermo-responsive hydrogel nanofibres from poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) and POSS crosslinker [PDF]

, 2011
Stable thermo-responsive hydrogel nanofibres have been prepared by electrospinning of commercial poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) in the presence of a polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) possessing eight epoxide groups and of an organic-base ...

Tensile properties of electrospun polyacrylonitrile nanofibres: Influence of fibre orientation and stretching

Polymer Testing
The tensile mechanical properties of electrospun polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibres are generally lower when compared to melt and solution-spun fibres. Whilst electrospinning has been reported extensively, the effect of stretching of aligned nanofibres ...

Preparation of Nitrogen Doped Carbon Nanofibers for Electrochemical Determination of Cd(II) and Pb(II) Ions

International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2020
It is very important to detect heavy metal ions in coal mine wastewater. In this work, we developed a simple electrospinning and carbonization method to prepare nitrogen-doped carbon nanofibres based on ZIF-8 metal-organic nanoparticles.

Evaluation of Structure Quality of Web from Electrospun Nanofibres

AUTEX Research Journal, 2014
Electrospinning is remarkably a simple and versatile method for producing nanofibres. The diameter of nanofibres can vary from 10 nm to >1000 nm. In electrospinning, most of the attention is focused on producing fibres with a uniform diameter. It is very
