Electrospinning parameters for organic polymers for nanofiber production

Nanofibre is a type of fibre with the sizes of nano scale. It can be produced by several methods but the most conventional way is by electrospinning process. Electrospinning process is using the concept of different charges between the collector and the solution and therefore from the tips of the Ta...
