NovaSpider SE

Electrospinning is a fiber production method which uses electric force to draw charged threads of polymer solutions or polymer melts up to fiber diameters in the order of some hundred nanometers. Particularly, the process shares characteristics of both electrospraying and conventional solution dry spinning of fibers. The process does not require the use of coagulation chemistry or high temperatures to produce solid threads from solution. As a result, the process is particularly suited to the production of fibers using large and complex molecules. 

Using a rotating collector (e.g., a mandrel, a wire drum, a wheel, a cone, or a frame) in electrospinning setup as shown in the video, is the earliest, most straightforward, and simplest way to fabricate aligned fibers. Certainly, fiber alignment increased with increasing the drum speed (surface velocity) up to a critical level (12.9 m/s). Likewise, the best orientation of the ES fibers in the mat occurs when the linear velocity of the rotating cylinder surface matches that of evaporating jet depositions. Therefore, it is the high velocities and/or mechanical stretching forces that impart the ejected ES fibers taken up on the rotating cylinder surface tightly in a circumferential manner, which results in the fiber alignment.
