Food-grade gliadin microstructures obtained by electrohydrodynamic processing.
Niloufar Sharif,Mohammad-Taghi Golmakani,Mehrdad Niakousari,Behrouz Ghorani,Amparo López-Rubio +4 more
TL;DR: In general, increasing the voltage resulted in smaller average sizes of the obtained structures, while no significant differences in morphology were observed among the tested flow rates, and the amide I position in the FTIR reflected changes in protein conformation which could be correlated with the final morphology attained.

Biodegradable poly(l-lactic acid) nanofiber prepared by a carbon dioxide laser supersonic drawing
Akihiro Suzuki,Keiko Aoki +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a carbon dioxide (CO2) laser supersonic drawing which was carried out by irradiating the laser on an as-spun fiber in a super-heated jet was generated by blowing off air into a vacuum chamber from fiber supplying orifice.

Preparation and characterization of electrospun graphene/silk fibroin conductive fibrous scaffolds
TL;DR: The data in this study suggested that the 3% G/SF scaffolds might represent an adequate substrate to successfully scaffold electroactive tissue during regeneration or engineering.

Preparation and Characterization of Caffeic Acid-Grafted Electrospun Poly(l-Lactic Acid) Fiber Mats for Biomedical Applications
TL;DR: Direct culturing of HDFa on these fibrous substrates indicated that they supported the proliferation of the cells on days 2 and 3 very well and that the CA-immobilized substrates exhibited the highest cell viability.

Electrospinning process and applications of electrospun fibers
Jayesh Doshi,Darrell H. Reneker +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the electrospinning process, the processing conditions, fiber morphology, and some possible uses of electrospun fibers, and describe the diameter of these fibers in the range of 0.05 to 5 microns.

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$^\circ$.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
