RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ELECTROSPINNING PARAMETERS AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF TUBULAR STRUCTURE NANOFIBERS BY OPPOSITE CHARGE ELECTROSPINNING .

Modeling Electrospinning of Nanofibers

A fast discrete model for the simulations of thin charged jets produced during the electrospinning process is derived, based on an efficient implementation of the boundary element method for the computation of electrostatic interactions of the jet with itself and with the electrodes. Short-range electrostatic forces are evaluated with slender-body analytical approximations, whereas a hierarchic...

Upward Needleless Electrospinning of Nanofibers

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers were prepared by a needleless electrospinning method using three rotating fiber generators, cylinder, disc and coil. The effects of the spinneret shape on the electrospinning process and resultant fiber morphology were examined. The disc spinneret needed the lowest voltage to initiate fiber formation, followed by the coil and cylinder. Compared to cylinder, th...

Electrospinning of cyclodextrin-pseudopolyrotaxane nanofibers.

Cyclodextrins (CDs) are distinctive molecules that can form noncovalent host–guest complexes with a variety of molecules to yield intriguing supramolecular structures. Electrospinning has gained enormous attention since this versatile technique enables production of multifunctional nanofibers made from various polymers, polymer blends, composites, and ceramics. Electrospun nanofibers containing...
