A comparative fractographic analysis for the effect of polymeric nanofiber reinforcements on the tensile behavior of at Salimpour Site.

In this study, a cryogel/nanofiber hybrid material was developed using a new lotus-leaf-inspired strategy. The lotus effect was generated via beaded poly( ε -caprolactone) (PCL) nanofibers produced from the 9 wt% PCL solution with low viscosity and high surface tension via electrospinning. A poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) cryogel layer was constructed through polymerization onto the beaded PCL nanofibrous mat. The thickness of the PHEMA cryogel/beaded PCL nanofiber hybrid material was 3.19 ± 0.07 mm. Morphological characterization studies of the hybrid material were conducted by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The mean diameter of the beaded PCL nanofibers was 97.22 ± 21.18 nm. 2024-03-01

Objective: This study aims to formulate a ketoconazole patch containing electrospun nanofibres and enhance the solubility due to theincreased particle surface using the electrospinning method. Methods: The Design-Expert version13 software was used in experimental designing, to ensure an efficient nanofiber preparation process. Several nanofiber formulations were prepared with different concentrations of drug and polymers. In this study, Ketoconazole was selected as the model drug, ketoconazole is widely used as an antifungal drug in the treatment of fungal infections. Eudragit and Polyethylene glycol polymers were used with ketoconazole to formulate electrospun nanofibers. 2024-08-01

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

This study successfully fabricated polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofiber in various thicknesses as particulate matter (PM) filtration membranes using the electrospinning method. The PM source used was derived from cigarette smoke. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectra are provided in the manuscript to observe the morphology and chemical composition of the fabricated nanofiber membrane. The thickness of the nanofiber was controlled based on the volume of the polymer solution, which was 4 mL, 6 mL, and 8 mL, and had a thickness of (52 ± 2) µm, (176 ± 27) µm, and (479 ± 38) µm, respectively (denoted as NF-4, NF-6, and NF-8 membranes). 2024-12-01

Due to the direct long-term contact with living tissue, the biocompatibility of implants is particularly demanding. In this context, biointegration of implants highly depends on cell colonialization on the surface or in the gap between implant and tissue, as well as cell ingrowth in porous implant structures. Fibrous material is predestined based on two variable parameters, fiber thickness and pore size. Various applications in implant coating, stenting, wound treatment, bone surgery, or cardiovascular field are possible. Coating with cell-friendly material can significantly improve the biocompatibility of the underlying material. In this study, the biocompatibility of medical device 2024-12-01
