Polymeric nanostructured items electrospun on a cylindrical template: a simple procedure for their removal
Tubular structures, obtained by electrospinning on a rotating mandrel, are of interest for use as devices in medical and industrial applications
Effect of side‐chain length on the electrospinning of perfluorosulfonic acid ionomers
The effect of the side‐chain length (short side chain and long side chain, SSC and LSC, respectively) of perfluorosulfonic acid (PFSA) ionomers on the properties of nanofibers obtained by electrospinning ionomer dispersions in high dielectric constant liquids has been investigated with a view to obtaining electrospun webs as components of fuel cell membranes.
Shape‐memory properties of degradable electrospun scaffolds based on hollow microfibers
Multifunctional thermo‐responsive and degradable porous materials exhibiting a shape‐memory effect are explored in biomedicine as actively moving scaffolds or switchable substrates.
Micro‐Raman and photoluminescence analysis of composite vanadium oxide/poly‐vinyl acetate fibres synthesised by electro‐spinning
Composite vanadium oxide (VOx)‐based fibres were synthesised by the electro‐spinning method combined with conventional sol–gel processing using polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) as a polymeric binder and vanadium oxytriisopropoxide as a vanadium oxide precursor
Electrospinning of ethyl cellulose fibres with glass and steel needle configurations
A novel device to produce ethyl cellulose fibres, an important biomaterial in modern food processing, using a glass needle in a modified electrospinning setup has been investigated.
