Industry: Textile/fashion

Sub Category: Fabric Engineering

*Abstract: The inventor has developed a new wet-spinning process to fabricate continuous polymer nanofibers which have very low micron or submicron dimensions. This technique uses a low viscosity precursor with a high viscosity extrusion liquid. Under laminar flow conditions, this technique provides the potential for controlled fiber spinning and spooling collection.
