Electro‑spinning of protein solutions uses a high‑voltage electric field to draw charged jets that solidify into micro‑ or nano‑fibers.
Origin: Japan and France (21st century) — Asia and Europe
See full technique reference →The process relies on electrostatic forces to elongate a protein solution into a fine jet, which undergoes rapid solvent evaporation and protein denaturation, forming solid fibers. By adjusting solution concentration, conductivity, temperature, and flow rate, the fiber diameter and mechanical properties can be tuned for desired textural attributes.
