1. Nanometre diameter fibres of polymer, produced by electrospinningNanotechnology · 1996 · 3,532 citations

   Electrospinning uses electrical forces to produce polymer fibres with nanometre-scale diameters. Electrospinning occurs when the electrical forces at the surface of a polymer solution or melt overcome the surface tension and cause an electrically charged jet to be ejected. When…

2. Electrospinning jets and polymer nanofibersPolymer · 2008 · 2,315 citations

   In electrospinning, polymer nanofibers are formed by the creation and elongation of an electrified fluid jet. The path of the jet is from a fluid surface that is often, but not necessarily constrained by an orifice, through a straight segment…
