Electrospinning is becoming more efficient and more specialized in order to produce fiber types with tunable diameter and morphology, tunable alignment, pattern, and 3D structure. The first part of this book covers the introduction to electrospinning of nanofibrous materials, the principles and relationships between process parameters and structure of nanofibers, manufacturing technology, and the modification of techniques for improved nanomaterials. The second part of has a focus on specific application areas of electrospun nanofibers in a variety of fields.
This comprehensive book draws on academic research as well as the latest industrial practice from a wide range of fields to help readers address challenges in and exploit the advantages of nanofiber technology.
- Provides the technical parameters for the electrospinning process, and explains how to adjust those parameters to achieve the targeted nanofibers
- Highlights the latest and emerging applications of nanofiber technology in areas such as wearable textile, biomedical applications, energy generation and storage, water treatment and environmental remediation, and biomarkers for healthcare and biomedical engineering
- Outlines the challenges in this field that are faced by researchers and practitioners
