Relationships between phase morphology and deformation mechanisms in polymer nanocomposite nanofibres prepared by an electrospinning process.

TL;DR: A brittle-to-ductile transition in polymer nanocomposite fibres during in situ tensile deformation processes provides an optimal balance of stiffness, strength and toughness for use as reinforcing elements in a polymer based composite of a new kind.
Journal ArticleDOI

Whipping of electrified liquid jets.

TL;DR: This work applies an electric field to a moderately conducting liquid surrounded by another coflowing liquid, all inside a glass-based microfluidic device, to study nonaxisymmetric instabilities and finds that the bending of the electrified jet results in a steady-state, helicoidal structure with a constant opening angle.

Functionalization of electrospun nanofibers of natural cotton cellulose by cerium dioxide nanoparticles for ultraviolet protection

TL;DR: In this article, a rare-earth nano-oxide material of cerium dioxide (CeO2) was used to obtain the designated properties of cellulose nanocomposite fibers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrospinning of neat and laponite-filled aqueous poly(ethylene oxide) solutions

TL;DR: In this article, a weak correlation between fiber diameter and the spinning solution's zero-shear viscosity is observed and compared with previous work reported by McKee et al. They also identify physicochemical properties that are important in determining electrospun fiber morphology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrospinning on 3D Printed Polymers for Mechanically Stabilized Filter Composites.

TL;DR: Although the adhesion between both materials is insufficient in the case of a common rigid printing polymer, nanofiber mats show strong adhesion to 3D printed scaffolds from thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), paves the way to a second approach of combining 3D printing and electrospinning in order to prepare mechanically stable filters with a nanofibrous surface.
