What You Need to Know
A high voltage applied to a protein solution draws a charged jet that undergoes Taylor cone formation and rapid solvent evaporation. The resulting nanofibers assemble into a continuous film, enhancing barrier properties through a dense, tortuous network. Precise control of solution conductivity, flow rate, and collector geometry is essential to avoid defects such as beads or clogs.
