“…Fiber-producing techniques similar to MEW have addressed processing speed by use of electrostatic deflection of polymer solutions, [10] or by random deposition of polymer melts using circularly aligned needleless nozzles, [11,12] linearly aligned jets produced by slot spinners, [13,14] multiple Taylor cones from melting of a polymer sheet with a laser beam, [15] or nozzle arrays, [16,17] including 600 nozzles. [18,19] The combination of solvent-free melts and precise positioning of fibers has so far remained elusive. Translating a multi-jet approach to MEW has presumably not been reported due to technical challenges in developing the required hardware or perhaps due to the perception that multiple jets will deleteriously impact each other.…”
