"The porphyrin-based nanosheets are constructed through interfacial reactions that are driven by the movement of reactants ...

The study compared the effectiveness of surgical and cotton masks, a neck gaiter, and electrospun nanofiber membranes. The cotton mask and neck gaiter only removed about 45 percent to 73 percent ...

Innovations to improve mask efficacy, with increasing focus on nanofiber manufacturing, have resulted in higher filtration efficiency, greater comfort, and easier breathing capacity. However ...

Now a team of researchers, led by Professor Myoung-Hwan Park from Sahmyook University in South Korea, has developed a light-responsive nanofiber-based novel drug delivery system (DDS) targeting ...

Now, researchers have created a new nanofiber version of the material that’s just as strong, but much more insulating against heat. Kevlar and Twaron get their protective properties from their ...

Flexible electronic devices based on electrospun nanofiber membranes (ENM) are attracting significant attention due to their high biocompatibility and excellent mechanical performance. However ...

(Nanowerk News) Miniscule artificial scaffolding units made from nano-fibre polymers and built to house plant cells have enabled scientists to see for the first time how individual plant cells behave ...

Shaped like a children’s toy, the lightweight SpinCare emits a proprietary nanofiber “second skin” that completely covers the area that needs to heal. All one needs to do is aim, squeeze the ...
