  • Electrospinning ultrafine conductive polymeric fibers
    Patent number: 7264762
    Abstract: A process of making conductive polymeric fibers by electrospinning fibers from a blend of polymers dissolved in an organic solvent includes generating a high voltage electric field between oppositely charged polymer fluid in a glass syringe (4) with a capillary tip (5) and a metallic collection screen (2) and causing a polymer jet (3) to flow to the screen (2) as solvent evaporates and collecting fibers on the screen (2).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 5, 2001
    Date of Patent: September 4, 2007
    Assignees: Drexel University, Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania
