Abstract
Abstract In this review, the recent developments on centrifugal spinning and characteristics of centrifugally-spun fibers are reviewed. In recent years, there have been great efforts to develop high performance materials for different applications including energy storage, tissue engineering, drug delivery and aerosol filtration. The performance of these materials is greatly influenced by the material type; structure; mechanical, chemical, thermal stability and physical properties such as porosity and surface area. This review introduces the principles of centrifugal spinning with recent developments in manufacturing. The structures, characteristics and performance of centrifugally spun fibers are described in this review. Furthermore, the perspective on the current challenges and promising research directions that could lead to further advancements on centrifugal spinning is provided.
期刊介绍:
Polymer Reviews is a reputable publication that focuses on timely issues within the field of macromolecular science and engineering. The journal features high-quality reviews that have been specifically curated by experts in the field. Topics of particular importance include biomedical applications, organic electronics and photonics, nanostructures, micro- and nano-fabrication, biological molecules (such as DNA, proteins, and carbohydrates), polymers for renewable energy and environmental applications, and interdisciplinary intersections involving polymers.
The articles in Polymer Reviews fall into two main categories. Some articles offer comprehensive and expansive overviews of a particular subject, while others zero in on the author's own research and situate it within the broader scientific landscape. In both types of articles, the aim is to provide readers with valuable insights and advancements in the field of macromolecular science and engineering.
