Abstract:
Electrospinning is a simple and efficient technology that utilizes high electrostatic potentials to draw polymer solutions or polymer melt into fibres or particles. The structure and the physicochemical properties of electrospinning fibres can be tailored according to the end application, and for this reason, electrospinning is a versatile and appealing technique. Several potential applications in which electrospinning may provide a plausible solution have been reported mainly for the bio and food-producing or developing fields. This area is highlighted by some recent advances carried out by electrospinning in food packaging, and sensing applications.
