Abstract:
Electrospinning has emerged as a versatile method to produce fine disperse fibers from natural or synthetic polymers ranging in average diameters from well below 100 nm to several micrometers. These structures have substantial potential for applications in the food, pharmaceutical, chemical or personal care industries. In this chapter, we will introduce the reader to the general principle of electrospinning and the parameters that affect the ...
