Electrospinning jets and polymer nanofibers
2.1K
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the formation and elongation of polymer nanofibers by creating and elongating an electrified fluid jet, which is often, but not necessarily constrained by an orifice, through a straight segment of a tapering cone, then through a series of successively smaller electrically driven bending coils, with each bending coil having turns of increasing radius, and finally solidifying into a continuous thin fiber.
