Enhanced stability and mobility of aligned In2O3 nanofiber field-effect transistors with Y2O3 passivation at Salimpour Site.

Finding a green approach for silver nanoparticle (AgNP) synthesis and as an adsorbent for safe contaminant removal in water has become a challenge. In this study, AgNP were green synthesised into a biopolymer matrix (natural rubber latex/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA/NRL)) via electrospinning. Efficiency of the synthesised nanofibre composites in removing mercury (Hg) from an aqueous solution was examined. SEM and TEM analysis showed that AgNP were more visible on the fibre’s surface at a lower concentration (0.01 M AgNP), whilst at a higher concentration (0.015 M AgNP), relatively more AgNP were found within the fibre. The average sizes of the AgNP were relatively larger (8.15 ± 0.09 nm) in 0. 2023-11-01

As the global facial mask market continues to grow, consumers have put forward higher requirements for the functionality and ingredients of mask products. Ordinary facial masks mostly use ordinary non-woven fabrics as the mask base fabric and are used with essence. Preservatives are generally added. At the same time, they are susceptible to the influence of the external environment and are easily oxidized, causing the mask to deteriorate and cause skin allergic reactions. In addition, traditional facial masks have problems such as poor fit with the skin, poor breathability, insufficient absorption of nutrient solutions, and easy dripping. 2024-06-01

The nanofiber materials of three-dimensional spatial structure synthesized by electrospun have the characteristics of high porosity, high specific surface area, and high similarity to the natural extracellular matrix (ECM) of the human body. These are beneficial for absorbing wound exudate, effectively blocking the invasion of external bacteria, and promoting cell respiration and proliferation, which provides an ideal microenvironment for wound healing. Moreover, electrospun nanofiber dressings can flexibly load drugs according to the condition of the wound, further promoting wound healing. Recently, electrospun nanofiber materials have shown promising application prospects as medical 2024-09-01

Wound management is a complex clinical challenge that needs advanced materials and techniques for satisfactory results. Electrospun nanofiber mats have emerged as an innovative alternative for wound healing purposes due to their porous architecture, greater surface area, ease of water absorption, mimicry of the extracellular matrix of natural tissues and tunable mechanical properties. This paper sheds light on recent advances in the fabrication techniques, properties, structural features and application of electrospun polymeric nanofiber mats for wound healing purposes emphasizing the importance of polymer selection and processing parameters in tailoring their physicochemical properties. 2024-12-01

Proc. 2025, 21, 1. Abstract: Carbon nanofiber mats can be applied for diverse energy applications. Usually, they should be freestanding and show sufficient structural stability. Poly(acrylonitrile) (PAN) is often used as the base material for electrospinning due to its high carbon yield during carbonization. Carbonized PAN nanofiber mats, however, may be brittle and break under mechanical load. Here, we report a study of the impact of ZnO and tetraethyl or-thosilicate (TEOS) as nanoparticle additives on the 2025-02-01
