Abstract:In this work, the electrospinning technique is used for the synthesis of micro/nanofibers using a polymeric precursor with hydrophobic (even superhydrophobic) behaviour such as polystyrene (PS). These electrospun fibers are deposited onto aluminum substrates (6061T6). The effect of varying the different electrospinning deposition parameters (mostly applied voltage and flowrate) will be exhaustively analyzed in order to optimize the resultant electrospun coatings. Several fiber characterization tests have been … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
