“…The optimal electrospinning process parameters (mainly flow and voltage) to obtain a stable Taylor cone depend on the solution’s intrinsic parameters. When the design of experiments methodology is used to establish this dependence there are several approaches: to employ voltage and flow rate as selected variables [37,38], to use the same voltage and flow rate for all solutions [39,40], or to adjust these parameters in each solution. As mentioned in the introduction, we selected the last strategy in order to avoid effects due to the poor quality and low production of fibers in the response parameters.…”

In this work Poly ε-caprolactone (PCL)/ Diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) blends were electrospun and the obtained mats were UV cured to achieve shape memory properties. In the majority of studies, when blends with different compositions are electrospun, the process variables such as voltage or flow rate are fixed independently of the composition and consequently the quality of the fibers is not optimized in all of the range studied. In the present work, using the design of experiments methodology, flow rate and voltage required to obtain a stable process were evaluated as responses in addition to the fiber diameter and shape memory properties. The results showed that the solution concentration and amount of PCL played an important role in the voltage and flow rate. For the shape memory properties excellent values were achieved and no composition dependence was observed. In the case of fiber diameter, similar results to previous works were observed.

“…e spinning of raw polymeric feedstock into polymeric precursor nanofibers is mainly carried out via electrospinning [16][17][18][19]. Electrospinning is advantageous in that the nanofiber diameter can easily be lowered to around 100 nm by adjusting the process parameters [20]. e precursor polymer nanofibers are then transformed to CNFs by heating them at high temperature (>600°C) under inert atmosphere [17,19].…”

The increasing demand for cleaner fuels and the recent stringent regulations of commercial fuel specifications have driven the research of alternative methods to upgrade the current industrial desulfurization technology. Adsorptive desulfurization, the removal of refractory sulfur compounds using appropriate selective tailor-made adsorbents, has shown up as a promising alternative in the recent years. Carbon nanomaterials, namely, graphene, graphene oxide, carbon nanotubes and carbon nanofibers, show a significant potential as desulfurization adsorbents. Their surface area and porosity, their ability of easy functionalization, and their suitability to serve as a support of different types of adsorbents have rendered them attractive candidates for this purpose. In this review, after a presentation of the current industrial desulfurization practice and its limitations, the structure and properties of the carbon nanomaterials of interest will be described, followed by a detailed account of their applications in adsorptive desulfurization. The major literature findings and conclusions will be presented and discussed as a road map for future research in the field.

“…The concentration of the solution was found being the much significant factor influencing the diameter of the generated fibres with a high consistency (Saligheh et al, 2015, Hakkak et al, 2015, Su et al, 2015, Doustgani, 2016. In contrary, there are a lot of different interpretations about the effect of applied voltage (Ahmadipourroudposht et al, 2015, Khanlou et al, 2015, processing distance (Dehghan et al, 2016, Svinterikos andZuburtikudis, 2017) or flow rate Anandhan, 2015, Albetran et al, 2015). The observed morphological properties from different polymer solutions through several experimental methods are listed in Table 1 and the significance of most popular processing parameters in the resulting mathematical models from these different experimental studies are summarized in Table 2.…”

In this study, an experimental investigation of the electrospinning process has been conducted using two successive Taguchi experimental designs, namely L 18 (3 5) and L 9 (3 4) for the electrospinning setups with a rotating drum and a stationary plate, respectively. The processing parameters are; concentration of poly(vinyl alcohol) in aqueous solution, applied voltage, distance between the needle and the collector, flow rate of the polymer solution and the rotational speed of the collecting drum. The primary process setup is used to analyse the effects of the parameters to the diameter of nanofibers and its standard deviation (SD), through examinations of the range analysis and graphical interpretations. The secondary process set up is used to gather the data to verify the results and to compare the effects of the collecting methods on the process outputs. A short literature review of the publications on which parameter effects were analysed by statistical methods is also presented.
