  2. Nanofiber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanofiber

    Nanofibers were first produced via electrospinning more than four centuries ago. [28] [29] Beginning with the development of the electrospinning method, English physicist William Gilbert (1544-1603) first documented the electrostatic attraction between liquids by preparing an experiment in which he observed a spherical water drop on a dry surface warp into a cone shape when it was held below ...

  3. Nanomaterials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanomaterials

    A nanofiber has two external dimensions in the nanoscale, with nanotubes being hollow nanofibers and nanorods being solid nanofibers. A nanoplate/nanosheet has one external dimension in the nanoscale, [20] and if the two larger dimensions are significantly different it is called a nanoribbon. For nanofibers and nanoplates, the other dimensions ...

  4. Electrospinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrospinning

    Polymeric nanofibers have been used in air filtration applications for more than seven decades. [49] [59] Because of poor bulk mechanical properties of thin nanowebs, they are laid over a filtration medium substrate. The small fiber diameters cause slip flows at fiber surfaces, causing an increase in the interception and inertial impaction ...

  5. The Nanofibers in '3 Body Problem' Are Real, and Yes, They ...

    To put it simply, nanofibers are a super, super thin material that can be made from a super strong (and super thin) carbon material, and are generally good conductors of heat and electricity.

  6. Melt blowing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melt_blowing

    Melt blowing is a conventional fabrication method of micro- and nanofibers where a polymer melt is extruded through small nozzles surrounded by high speed blowing gas. The randomly deposited fibers form a nonwoven sheet product applicable for filtration, sorbents, apparels and drug delivery systems.

  7. Carbon nanofiber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_nanofiber

    Carbon nanofibers (CNFs), vapor grown carbon fibers (VGCFs), or vapor grown carbon nanofibers (VGCNFs) are cylindrical nanostructures with graphene layers arranged as stacked cones, cups or plates. Carbon nanofibers with graphene layers wrapped into perfect cylinders are called carbon nanotubes .

  8. Nanofabrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanofabrics

    Depending on the desired property, a nanofabric is either constructed from nanoscopic fibers called nanofibers, or is formed by applying a solution containing nanoparticles to a regular fabric. Nanofabrics research is an interdisciplinary effort involving bioengineering , [ 5 ] molecular chemistry , physics , electrical engineering , computer ...

  9. Interfacial polymerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interfacial_polymerization

    [1] [2] These nanofibers have been shown to detect various gaseous chemicals, such as hydrogen chloride (HCl), ammonia (NH 3), Hydrazine (N 2 H 4), chloroform (CHCl 3), and methanol (CH 3 OH). [1] PANI nanofibers can be further fined-tuned by doping and modifying the polymer chain conformation, among other methods, to increase selectivity to ...
