A Review of Electrospun Nanofber Membranes
نویسنده
چکیده مقاله:
Electrospun nanofber membranes (ENMs) are new generation of membranes with many favorable properties such as high flux and low pressure drop. Although electrospinning has been known for more than a century, its applications in fltration and separation processes are relatively new. Electrospinning has provided the means to produce ultrathin fbers – as thin as a few nanometers – that can be used in preparing membranes with small and defned pore sizes. In addition, due to the small fber diameter ENMs exhibit high surface area to volume ratio, making them suitable adsorption media with enhanced capacity compared with conventional adsorbents. This paper familiarizes the reader with the history and laboratory-scale preparation of ENMs, discusses parameters that influence properties of the fbers and the fnal membranes, and introduces a number of applications in which, ENMs have exhibited superior performances compared to competing conventional processes.

Nonwoven fibrous membranes were formed from electrospinning lecithin solutions in a single processing step. As the concentration of lecithin increased, the micellar morphology evolved from spherical to cylindrical, and at higher concentrations the cylindrical micelles overlapped and entangled in a fashion similar to polymers in semi-dilute or concentrated solutions. At concentrations above the ...
