“…In both cases, the aim has been to achieve unidirectional fibre orientation, in particular in the axial direction for tubular scaffolds, as is the case of fibre orientation in tunica media in arteries [6,19]. Various techniques have been used in the past for the fabrication of porous scaffolds, such as drawing [26], phase separation [31], template synthesis [7], self-assembly [37], particulate leaching [12], foaming [24], freeze-drying [23], and electrospinning [4,20,34,39]. Electrospinning has been used for the fabrication of the fibrous scaffolds in this study, followed by crosslinking of gelatine in glutaldehyde solution [15][16]36].…”

Electrospinning was used in innovative electrospinning rigs to obtain tubular and flat fibrous structures with controlled fibre orientation with the aim to be used as scaffolds for biomedical applications, more specifically in the tissue engineering of vascular and orthopaedic grafts.Gelatine and hydroxyapatite (HA)-gelatine solutions of various compositions were tried and electrospinning of continuous fibres was maintained for gelatine and up to 0.30 g/g HAgelatine solutions in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (TFE). Small diameter tubular scaffolds were electrospun with axial fibre orientation and flat scaffolds were cut from fibre mats electrospun around a wired drum substrate. The fibrous mats were crosslinked using a glutaraldehyde solution and subjected to image analysis of SEM micrographs, water swelling tests, and mechanical testing. Fibre diameter in the electrospun scaffolds could be varied depending on the feed solution concentration and composition whereas fibre orientation was affected by the processing conditions. After crosslinking, the 0.30 g/g HA-gelatine scaffolds absorbed the minimum amount of water after 48 h soaking and they had the highest Young's modulus, 60 MPa, and highest strength, 3.9 MPa.

“…In addition to this, air brushing procedure is practically identical and more secure than ordinary electrospinning process. This is because; manufacturing of fibres is possible without utilizing of any type of high voltage equipment [55][56][57][58]. At present, this technique is being used for fabrication of micro/nano webs [56][57][58][59].…”

Recently, nonwoven composites have been recognized to exhibit significant potential in several applications such as filtration, wound care, and biomedical devices. This is due to the fact that high performance nonwoven composites can be easily fabricated using cost effective as well as eco-friendly techniques. This review article presents the recent progress in fabrication techniques used for production of nonwoven composites using natural and synthetic polymers for textile application in particular. Different types of nonwoven web according to the production route are discussed in detail. In addition to this, various bonding techniques used for web bonding are also highlighted in this review.

Abstract. Change of the static contact angle (SCA) of 10 μL distilled water droplet on laser textured aluminium alloy (AMG-6) substrates was studied. The texture was deposited by a laser system based on a fiber laser. An increase in the power of laser radiation is found to lead to a decrease in the SCA measured on the first day after texturing. Change of dispersion and polar surface energy components of textured substrates is determined. Under the influence of the environment, the surface properties of AMG-6 change with time. SCA increased and reached stable state on the twentieth day after texturing.
