Quality factors of PVA nanofibrous filters for airborne particles in the size range of 10–125 nm
TL;DR: In this paper, the quality factors of PVA nanofibrous filter samples were evaluated using sodium chloride nanoparticles in the size range of 10-125nm and the results showed that, as expected, single layer filters with smaller fiber diameters and greater solidity were efficient.

Marko Krstić,Marija Radojević,Dušica B. Stojanović,Vesna Radojević,Petar S. Uskoković,Svetlana Ibrić +5 more
TL;DR: The preparation and characterization of films and nanofibers with carvedilol as a poorly water‐soluble drug in poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) polymer were investigated and the dependence of the fiber diameter of formulation and electrospinning process parameters, and consequently influence the amount and distribution of carveilol in the encapsulated fibers were revealed.

Disintegration of Water Drops in an Electric Field
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a conical interface between two fluids can exist in equilibrium in an electric field, but only when the cone has a semi-vertical angle 49.3$^\circ$.

Bending instability of electrically charged liquid jets of polymer solutions in electrospinning
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed and explained the reasons for the instability of a viscous jet of polymer solution at a pendent droplet, showing that the longitudinal stress caused by the external electric field acting on the charge carried by the jet stabilized the straight jet for some distance.

Electrically driven jets
TL;DR: Van Dyke as mentioned in this paper measured the potentials at which viscous jets or drops first appear in a parallel electric field and compared with calculations of A. B. Basset and found that their stability is due to mechanical rather than electrical causes, like a stretched string, which is straight when pulled but bent when pushed.
