Chain Conformations of Poly(γ‐benzyl‐L‐glutamate) Pre and Post an Electrospinning Process
TL;DR: In this paper, the chain conformations of pre-spun poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) (PBLG) molecules were investigated and the relationships between the chain conformation of the prespun PBLG molecules and the morphologies of the post-spinings of the fibers were investigated.

Spray deposition of live cells throughout the electrospinning process produces nanofibrous three-dimensional tissue scaffolds.
Justin T. Seil,Thomas J. Webster +1 more
TL;DR: Results indicated that cell spraying and the scaffold fabrication process did not significantly reduce cell viability, and contribute to the understanding of how to produce more physiological relevant cell-seeded nanofibrous scaffolds, an important element for the future of nanotechnology and tissue engineering.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fibre-reinforced hydrogels with high optical transparency
TL;DR: A review of natural and synthetic reinforcement fiber research with special emphasis placed on nanofibres is provided in this paper with the added benefit of transparency by being much smaller than the wavelength of visible light.

TL;DR: More than 20 polymers, including polyethylene oxide, nylon, polyimide, DNA, polyaramid, and polyaniline, have been electrospun in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of processing variables on the morphology of electrospun nanofibers and textiles
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of two of the most important processing parameters, spinning voltage and solution concentration, on the morphology of the fibers formed were evaluated systematically, and it was found that spinning voltage is strongly correlated with the formation of bead defects in the fibers, and that current measurements may be used to signal the onset of the processing voltage at which the bead defect density increases substantially.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bending instability of electrically charged liquid jets of polymer solutions in electrospinning
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed and explained the reasons for the instability of a viscous jet of polymer solution at a pendent droplet, showing that the longitudinal stress caused by the external electric field acting on the charge carried by the jet stabilized the straight jet for some distance.

Tailoring tissue engineering scaffolds using electrostatic processing techniques: a study of poly(glycolic acid) electrospinning
TL;DR: In this article, the ability to control the fiber diameter of poly(glycolic acid) as a function of solution concentration and fiber orientation was demonstrated, as well as a correlation between the fiber orientation, elastic modulu, and strain to failure of PGA in uniaxial model.
