Electrospinning is a method for making extremely thin fibers called nanofibers. Nanofibers are used in the manufacture of a variety of products used for the consumer, scientific, and health-care markets. The electrospinning process applies an electrical current to materials such as polymers, ceramics, or composites, depending on the final use of the nanofiber. The process is a simple and cost-effective way to make these fibers, which are increasingly important for a wide range of... więcej
