“…Commercial separator and PVDF‐HFP fiber are severely shrunk while the core‐sheath separator remains intact. Compared to commercial separator, it also shows lower interfacial resistance ∼98.5 Ω, higher ionic conductivity ∼6.16 mS/m, superior rate capability ∼138 mA‐h/g and cycling performance ∼75.4 % after 100 cycles …”

The formation of fibers by electrospinning has experienced explosive growth in the past decade, recently reaching 4,000 publications and 1,500 patents per year. This impressive growth of interest is due to the ability to form fibers with a variety of materials, which lend themselves to a large and rapidly expanding set of applications. In particular, coaxial electrospinning, which forms fibers with multiple core−sheath layers from different materials in a single step, enables the combination of properties in a single fiber that are not found in nature in a single material. This article is a detailed review of coaxial electrospinning: basic mechanisms, early history and current status, and an in‐depth discussion of various applications (biomedical, environmental, sensors, energy, catalysis, textiles). We aim to provide readers who are currently involved in certain aspects of coaxial electrospinning research an appreciation of other applications and of current results.

“…However, PVdF and PVdF-HFP separators also have their disadvantages, such as the inferior thermal stability and intrinsically hydrophobic character. Wei et al [105] prepared cellulose/PVdF-HFP membranes by coaxial electrospinning with superior thermal stability and a hydrophilic property. Other electrospun PVdF-based materials, such as P(VdF-HFP)/SiO 2 [106,107], PVdF-HFP/PMMA [108], P(VdF-co-HFP)/PAN [109] and PVdF/SiO 2 -Poly(acrylic acid) lithium (PAALi) [110] as separators for LIBs, all delivered high ionic conductivity, good tensile strength and high uptake/leakage.…”

With global concerns about the shortage of fossil fuels and environmental issues, the development of efficient and clean energy storage devices has been drastically accelerated. Nanofibers are used widely for energy storage devices due to their high surface areas and porosities. Electrospinning is a versatile and efficient fabrication method for nanofibers. In this review, we mainly focus on the application of electrospun nanofibers on energy storage, such as lithium batteries, fuel cells, dye-sensitized solar cells and supercapacitors. The structure and properties of nanofibers are also summarized systematically. The special morphology of nanofibers prepared by electrospinning is significant to the functional materials for energy storage.

Solar steam generation by photothermal materials has recently emerged as a new and feasible approach to effectively harvest solar energy in a variety of applications. This work reports an efficient heat localization material based on the renewable cellulose acetate cigarette filters and a reduced graphene oxide coating (RGO‐CF) as the light‐to‐heat conversion layer for solar steam generation. RGO‐CF possessed an aligned structure with superhydrophilic nature, lower thermal conductivity (0.0733 Wm−1 K−1), and broad light adsorption (≈100 %). These characteristics enable rapid water transportation and excellent light‐to‐heat conversion by the resulting RGO‐CF with an energy conversion efficiency of 94 % under stimulated solar illumination (1 kW m−2), which demonstrates that RGO‐CF is a promising photothermal conversion material for solar steam generation. Such strategy for preparation of photothermal materials not only reduces the fabrication cost but also provides a fundamental guidance for the practical application of renewable polymer resources from used cigarette filters.
