Presentation Transcript

  1. Uni-axial stretching of a visco-elastic solution (polymeric) by the mean of electrostatic forces. • The resultant nonwoven provide very porous arrangement where the pores are interrelated in the structure, with an overall high surface area compared to regular textiles. • The fibers can also be reinforced with nanoparticles, conferring different characteristics to the final product. Electrospinning: the technique

  3. Voltage Grounded Collector Positive Tip - - - - - + + + Electrospinning set-up ІІІІІІІ Syringe Pump Power Supply Tip-Collector Distance (TCD)

  4. Fiber diameter ES Conditions Polymeric solution Electric Field Flow Rate Tip-Collector Distance Fiber diameter can be tuned by modifying different conditions Solution properties Viscosity Conductivity Surface Tension High Voltage Electrospinning parameters Ambient parameters Temperature Humidity Air velocity Polymer fibers (μm-nm)

  5. Superior surface area • Controllable fiber surfaces, diameters, morphologies, structures, and functionalities • Improved mechanical performance • Diameters of fibers in the nano-order • Continuous single nanofibers Why Electrospun fibers?

  6. Electrospinning has recently received great attention in the fabrication of polymer nanofibers in a wide range of applications that demand high-performance materials for clothing, filtration, and biomedical materials. Other opportunities for electrospun fibers and ensuing structures include the fabrication of scaffolds for tissue engineering, in drug delivery, biosensors, and electronic and semi-conductive materials.
