Fine-tuning process parameters is crucial to achieve the desired Nanofibers characteristics. Variables such as polymer concentration, solution viscosity, applied voltage, and distance between the spinneret and collector significantly affect the morphology and diameter of the nanofibers. Optimizing these parameters requires a deep understanding of the polymer properties, rheology, and the electrostatic forces involved during the spinning process.
Surface functionalization of Nanofibers is often performed to tailor their properties for specific applications. Various techniques, such as plasma treatment, chemical grafting, and physical adsorption, can be employed to introduce functional groups or coatings onto the nanofiber surfaces. This enhances properties like hydrophobicity, biocompatibility, or catalytic activity, opening up new possibilities for nanofiber utilization.
