Introduction: Drugs and biocompatible nanoparticles have raised significant potential in advancing the bone regeneration. Electrospinning technology enables full realization of value drugs nanoparticles. Methods: In this study, we successfully fabricated core–sheath nanofibers solely composed polycaprolactone (PCL) polymer. Simvastatin (SIM) was confined to core while nanohydroxyapatite (nHA) l...

This paper reports the synthesis of polypyrrole coated SnO2/ZnOelectrospunnanofibers via vapor phase polymerization method. In order to prepare one dimensional (SnO2- ZnO)/polypyrrole with the core sheath structure, first SnO2-ZnO composite nanofibers were synthesized via electrospinning method followed by adsorption of Fe 3+  on the surface of the SnO2-ZnO nanofibers and finally pyrrole w...

A combination of static and dynamic laser light scattering has revealed that at temperatures higher than ,33 ±C a linear poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) chain grafted with poly(ethylene oxide) (PNIPAMg-PEO) in water can undergo a “coil-to-globule” transition to form a stable single chain core-shell nanostructure with the collapsed PNIPAM chain backbone as the hydrophobic core and the grafted PEO br...

Germanium/carbon core–sheath nanostructures and junctions are produced when Ge nanowires are subject to a thermal treatment in an organic vapor doped vacuum. The organic molecules pyrolyze on the surface of the Ge nanowires and form a continuous graphitic coating. The carbon-sheathed Ge nanowires undergo melting and evaporation at high temperature, which results in the formation of germanium/ca...

The objective of this study is to develop a structural nanocomposite of multiple components in the form of core-sheath nanofibres using coaxial electrospinning for the fast dissolving of a poorly water-soluble drug quercetin. Under the selected conditions, core-sheath nanofibres with quercetin and sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) distributed in the core and sheath part of nanofibres, respectively,...

Multiple core-sheath flowwas realized usingmatrix arrangement of 3D sheath flows.The sheath flowwas hydrodynamically formed in a flow shift area which has symmetrical microgrooves on channel walls. Vertical and horizontal alignments of the sample streams are a key element of matrix configuration. The flow shift areas were connected in parallel to achieve horizontal alignment of the sheath flow....

Nanocomposite electrodes having three-dimensional (3-D) nanoscale architecture comprising of vertically aligned ZnO nanorod array core-polypyrrole (PPy) conducting polymer sheath and the vertical PPy nanotube arrays have been investigated for supercapacitor energy storage. The electrodes in the ZnO nanorod core-PPy sheath structure are formed by preferential nucleation and deposition of PPy lay...

Hollow/porous nanoparticles, including nanocarriers, nanoshells, and mesoporous materials have applications in catalysis, photonics, biosensing, and delivery of theranostic agents. Using a hierarchical template synthesis scheme, we have synthesized a nanocarrier mimicking a golf ball, consisting of (i) solid silica core with a pitted gold surface and (ii) a hollow/porous gold shell without sili...

BACKGROUND The objective of this investigation was to develop a new type of solid dispersion in the form of core-sheath nanofibers using coaxial electrospinning for poorly water-soluble drugs. Different functional ingredients can be placed in various parts of core-sheath nanofibers to improve synergistically the dissolution and permeation properties of encapsulated drugs and to enable drugs to ...
