ABSTRACT

Electrospinning is a technique to generate submicron-to nanometer-scale bers from polymer solutions or melts. It is also known as electrostatic spinning, that has some characteristics common with electrospraying and the traditional ber drawing process. Electrospinning is a simple and facile technique to produce nonwoven, interconnected
