Thermally Triggered Mechanically Destructive Electronics Based On Electrospun Poly(ε-caprolactone) Nanofibrous Polymer Films.
TL;DR: A thermally triggered mechanically destructive device is constructed with an ultra-thin electronic components supported by an electrospun poly(ε-caprolactone) nanofibrous polymer substrate, which is able to on-demand destruct.

Ionic Liquid Assisted Electrospun Cellulose Acetate Fibers for Aqueous Removal of Triclosan
TL;DR: It is proposed that the adsorption of TCS onto CA fibers was primarily facilitated by the hydrogen bonding between the abundant carbonyl, hydroxyl groups of CA surface, and the hydrogen atoms of phenol functional groups in TCS molecular.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface morphology and mechanical response of randomly oriented electrospun nanofibrous membrane
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the mechanical characterization of electrospun nanofibrous membrane under simple and complex loading conditions and show that the membrane is initially isotropic in the plane and Young's modulus with increasing maximum strain suggests that mechanical deformation induces two interacting phenomena: fiber re-orientation and inter-fiber bond damage.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
