Polymeric magnetic fibrous filters

Electrospun polymeric nanofibers encapsulated with nanostructured materials and their applications: A review

“…These nanostructure materials can find their potential applications in various fields such as ultra-high density data storage, magnetic sensors, drug delivery system, magnetic cell separation, magnetic resonance imaging contrast agents, magnetic filter, and low frequency magnetic shielding [152][153][154]106,155,156]. Because of high surface to volume ratio, magnetic nanoparticles tends to agglometate for reducing own energy.…”

Nanotechnology in fibrous materials–a new perspective

“…These nanofibers find potential applications in a range of areas, such as intelligent fibers and fabrics for protective clothing in military, defence, and health care. Other potential applications include magnetic filters [274], sensors [275] and future generations of electronic, magnetic and/or photonic devices used for information storage, magnetic imaging, static and low requency magnetic shielding [276]. By incorporating magnetic nanoparticles of ferrites of Mn-Zn-Ni, Kessick and Tepper [272] has produced superparamagnetic flexible substrates that could find potential applications in enhancing radio communication, information storage, and shield against low frequency electromagnetic radiation.…”

Fabrication of magnetic composite nanofibers of poly(ε-caprolactone) with FePt nanoparticles by coaxial electrospinning

“…Magnetic composite fibers, in which magnetic nanoparticles are embedded into a polymeric fiber matrix, have attracted much attention in various applications including magnetic filters, sensors, drug releasing assistance, and future generation of electronic and magnetic devices used for information storage [1][2][3][4][5]. Very recently emerged coaxial electrospinning (a drawing process based on electrostatic interactions) is a simple and versatile approach to produce functional composite nanofibers that are exceptionally long in length, uniform in diameter, and diversified in composition [6][7][8].…”
