Studying the possibility of producing nanofibers from natural plant extracts using electrospinning technology

Abstract

The electrospinning technique is a promising technique in terms of processing molten or soluble polymeric materials or solutions into nanofibers capable of adapting additives ranging from simple black carbon particles to complex species such as enzymes, viruses and bacteria.

The electrospinning method provides access to completely new materials, which may contain complex chemical structures. In this research, work has been done to invest some plant materials to be used in the manufacture of nanofibers webs, which gives importance and acceptable economic feasibility towards replacing some expensive materials with natural plant materials, spinning them and utilizing them within nanofibers webs with their wide uses such as tissue engineering and others.
