Electrospinning Nozzle

STFC has developed a novel electrospinning process that allows for the parallel production of very fine multicore nanofibres and/ or particles of diameter between 3-1000 nm. A multitude of concentric ducts enable the layering of the fibres with various immiscible fluids at varying thickness. The structures thus produced in a wide range fields from clinical scaffolds, nanofibre mats for particulate filtration, immobilization in bioprocesses, etc. STFC invites commercial and technical partners to help take the technology to market.
