Özet
Electrospinning is one of the most convenient and effective techniques in the production of fibers that employs high voltage. The tunable parameters of the electrospinning technique, e.g. flow rate of the polymer solution, voltage, distance between needle and the collector, and viscosity of polymer solution, allow fibers with different sizes and characteristics to be produced, i.e. micro-to nanosized fibers with different types and extent of porosity. Electrospun fibers are well suited for a broad range of applications including environmental, energy, biotechnology, health care, and biomedical applications. Recently, electrospun fibers have attracted great interest for drug delivery, wound healing, and biosensor applications in the biomedical field. The electrospinning technique is attractive due to its simplicity and low cost and is widely employed in both academia and industry. In this chapter, the utilization of the electrospinning technique in the fabrication of nanofibers from various natural and synthetic polymers and their biomedical applications will be discussed. © 2022 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
