Stable jet electrospinning for easy fabrication of aligned ultrafine fibers

TL;DR: In this paper, a stable jet electrospinning technique is proposed for the fabrication of ultrafine fibers in micro/nano-scale fineness. But, it is still a huge technological challenge in achieving aligned fibers and arrays due to the inherent chaotic motion of an electro-spinning jet.

Development, optimization and evaluation of polymeric electrospun nanofiber: A tool for local delivery of fluconazole for management of vaginal candidiasis.

TL;DR: The results of studies on anti- microbial activity indicated that drug-loaded polymeric nanofibers exhibit superior anti-microbial activity against Candida albicans, when compared to the plain drug.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the measured current in electrospinning

TL;DR: In this paper, the origin and scaling of the current measured during steady electrospinning of polymer solutions in organic solvents are considered, and the experimental evidence suggests that the latter component arises due to a secondary electrospray emanating from the surface of the jet.

Splitting of a liquid jet.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a flowing liquid jet can be controllably split into two separate subfilaments through the application of a sufficiently strong tangential stress to the surface of the jet.

Polyoxometalate nanotubes from layer-by-layer coating and thermal removal of electrospun nanofibres

TL;DR: In this article, a hybrid film coated electrospun fibrous mat was obtained from the alternate deposition of positively charged poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and negatively charged H4SiW12O40 on the surface of negatively charged cellulose acetate (CA) nanofibres using the electrostatic LBL self-assembly technique.
